GERMAN-BASED ‘SCHOTT A-G’ WILL BREAK GROUND ON THE FACTORY NEXT MONTH. THE COMPANY WILL BUILD A 200- THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT PLANT IN THE MESA DEL SOL AREA. THE 500- MILLION DOLLAR FACILITY SHOULD OPEN IN 2009 AND COULD CREATE UP TO 15-HUNDRED JOBS. ‘i’m very excited about this. When we land companies like schott, I mean, this is a homerun for the state. This is probably one of our biggest announcements in economic development that we’ve ever had.’THE FACTORY WILL MANUFACTURE SOLAR CELLS, WHICH CONVERT SOLAR ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY, AND RECEIVERS USED IN CONCENTRATED SOLAR THERMAL PLANTS.
