GLOBALFOUNDRIES
GLOBALFOUNDRIES is building the most advanced semiconductor wafer manufacturing facility in the world at the Luther Forest Technology Campus. Construction of the first foundry (called Module 1) at Fab 8 is underway and on track to begin manufacturing in 2012. Module 1 includes 1.5 million square feet of manufacturing space and 300,000 square feet of cleanroom space.
HVCC TEC-SMART
TEC-SMART is the home of Hudson Valley Community College’s Saratoga campus. HVCC opened this $15 million facility in January 2010 to offer a curriculum that focuses on clean energy, semiconductor and other technology programs.
National Grid Switchyard
Companies that locate at the Luther Forest Tech Campus enjoy a redundant and reliable electric system. Four independent 115 kV circuits and a 115 kV substation link the campus to two regional utilities (National Grid and NYSEG). Both utilities are in the process of upgrading the regional grid to accommodate future power demands.
