The Hungarian subsidiary of German semiconductor manufacturer Infineon Technologies finished the expansion at its Cegléd production unit. As a result of the investment, 275 new jobs will be created. The new plant unit will produce high-powered semiconductor modules that will be built into electric and hybrid vehicles. The investment cost was €100 million, of which the government provided €20 million as a non-refundable subsidy. The investment is a response to the growing demand posed by the expansion of electromobility. Close to 100% of products produced at this plant will be exported.
