AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

South Carolina Politics: Democrat Annie Andrews flipped the state’s U.S. Senate seat, while Republican Alan Wilson won the governor’s race. Democrats also took control of Congress, setting up a divided government and possible shifts in federal policy. Manufacturing Investment: First Solar opened the first 1.7-gigawatt phase of its South Carolina module plant. Scout Motors built its first production vehicle in Blythewood, and a new supplier plans nearly 330 jobs there; Brose Sitech is also investing $30 million in a Richland County seat plant. Industrial Growth: JR Automation plans a $15.5 million technology center in South Carolina, adding to a busy week of manufacturing announcements. Energy and Safety: A fire at Savannah River Site triggered a brief emergency response; officials lifted restrictions and reported no contamination outside the lab.
