September 20, 2025
Nucor Corporation announced plans to build its third state-of-the-art utility structures production facility in Brigham City, Utah, representing a $200 million investment. This new facility is expected to create 200 full-time jobs and will be located on Nucor's existing Brigham City campus. The expansion is strategically positioned to meet the increasing demand for utility infrastructure in the western U.S., driven by distributed energy projects, data centers, and population growth. The Utah facility will be highly automated and will benefit from freight advantages by receiving plate and sheet products from Nucor steel mills via rail. Nucor is also completing construction of two other utility structures production facilities in Decatur, Alabama, and Crawfordsville, Indiana. The Alabama facility is expected to begin pole production and galvanizing operations in the third quarter of 2025, with the Indiana facility following in the first quarter of 2026. These investments aim to enhance Nucor's capabilities in higher-margin downstream products.
