Kokomo-based Green Cubes Technology has announced plans to expand its Howard County operations. The company, which manufactures advanced battery power systems, will invest $1.8 million to build a new global headquarters and create more than 70 jobs by the end of 2021.

The Indiana Economic Development Corp. says the 20,000-square-foot facility will also serve as the company’s technology center and manufacturing site, nearly doubling its current footprint. Green Cubes Technology, which currently employs 16 in Indiana, says the expansion will help meet growing demand.

“Kokomo has a wealth of engineering talent,” said Anthony Cooper, vice president of engineering for Green Cubes Technology. “So it made sense to expand here. Kokomo embraces new technology and emerging green technology. The ongoing development in Kokomo will attract skilled talent, so we will always have a deep talent pool to draw from.”

Green Cubes Technology plans to break ground on the facility mid-summer and expects it to be fully operational in early 2019. The IEDC says the company has begun hiring for assembly and manufacturing support positions and will continue hiring over the next six months.

The IEDC has offered Green Cubes Technology up to $532,000 in conditional tax credits, which the company will not be eligible to claim until Hoosier workers are hired for the new jobs. The city of Kokomo is also considering additional incentives.

Green Cubes Technology develops and manufactures the battery power systems that serve the automotive, healthcare, logistics, warehousing, recreational, oil and gas, and energy industries. The company has additional operations in Malaysia, Taiwan, India, and China and employs more than 90 associates worldwide.

Customer Ratings and Reviews

Green Cubes is a great company, great engineers, great product. That’s been kind of my number one go to [lithium] battery.

President Industrial Power Company

The thing I like about Green Cubes is that they have other lines of business outside of material handling batteries, they have been in the lithium world for a long time. I can trust they will likely stay in business

VP Industrial Battery Company

Green Cubes [differentiates] on its capability to custom design for things like the hardware, the firmware, and inverters. They also have economies of scale because they make battery systems for things like forklifts.

VP Powered Cart OEM

I am doing some work with them right now. We’re learning their products, and looking at demos. They have good people. They seem like they know the technology well – they say they’re a technology company. I like that they’ve been in the lithium business a long time. I can trust they will likely stay in business.

Sales Manager Industrial Battery Company

Green Cubes Technology would be my go-to for lithium applications.

Branch Manager OEM

I’ve told my friends at Green Cubes, I don’t plan on going anywhere. I believe in loyalty.
