Hyliion announces major expansion to Texas headquarters

June 10, 2021 Uncategorized

Hyliion Holdings Corp. has begun a significant expansion of its Austin headquarters, the company announced Tuesday. 

Driven by a growing staff and the need for additional installation and testing capacity, the company says the multi-million-dollar project will be broken into three stages, focusing on increased office space, a reconfigured installation warehouse, and a new research and development testing area. The full project is expected to be completed next year.

“Our people and our products are at the core of this expansion,” says Thomas Healy, founder and CEO, Hyliion. “We are growing to accommodate current and expected future demand for our innovative powertrain solutions. Each decision made in our building redesign is intended to support our commercialization goals as we work toward the rollout of our new Hybrid unit later this year and the launch of our Hypertruck ERX.”

The full project will increase facility capacity by 50 percent. Improvements will include: 

Expanding the facility footprint to 120,000 sq.-ft.
Adding 20,000 sq.-ft. of office space, enabling the entire facility to accommodate up to 500 employees
More than doubling the installation footprint and the number of trucks able to undergo simultaneous installation
Tripling the size of the area where Hyliion develops its proprietary battery technology
Increasing the testing area, where Hyliion’s powertrain and batteries are assessed and validated before becoming next generation solutions
Building a second floor and a fitness center

Richelle Frank, who recently joined Hyliion as vice president, Operations, will oversee the day-to-day progress of the redesign in addition to her duties leading a growing operations team and managing all of Hyliion’s installation and assembly programs.

“I am thrilled to have joined such a talented team and a company whose mission is helping to bring superior performance, emissions reductions, and lower operating costs to the commercial trucking industry,” she says. “I look forward to accelerating and building upon the strategic actions that Hyliion has already undertaken towards broader commercialization of our products.”
