Technology company relocates to Schenectady County

Schenectady County continues to grow its technology-based industry as Advanced Energy Conversion announces its plans to move to Schenectady and expand. The company had been located in Saratoga Technology and Energy Park (STEP) operated by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) in Malta, NY but has outgrown its space and was seeking a new Capitol Region location. Schenectady County was a particularly attractive location since it already is the headquarters to GE's renewable energy business and the Union Graduate College, where Advanced Energy Conversion Chief Technology Officer Dr. David A. Torrey is currently active as an advisor and faculty member. Advanced Energy Conversion plans to work even more closely with the College.

Chair of the Schenectady County Legislature Susan E. Savage said, “We are pleased that Advanced Energy Conversion has chosen to grow their company in Schenectady County. Creating new job opportunities throughout Schenectady County remains our priority and we will continue to work hard to bring this type of technology company to our community.”Click here for more news coverage.Click here for more information.
