On August 30, 2023, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer visited Ljungström’s Wellsville plant – after delivering a $1.5 million workforce development grant in 2021 to help power the company’s transition from coal to clean energy – to announce the company now projects to add over 50 new good paying jobs in Upstate NY in the next year. During the visit, Senator Schumer met with company executives to see firsthand how the federal investment he secured is supporting Ljungström’s pivot to the clean energy industry and discuss how the Inflation Reduction Act can help fuel the company’s continued growth.
