News from the IT Home on September 27th: Infineon recently announced that its power semiconductor factory in Thailand will officially start production on October 1st. The total investment in this project amounts to 1.44 billion US dollars (Note from the IT Home: At current exchange rates, this is approximately 9.69 billion RMB), and it is positioned as an integrated power semiconductor hub, undertaking orders for global power semiconductor devices.

It is reported that the factory is located in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, south of Bangkok, and specializes in back-end processes and the production of power semiconductor modules. Construction began in January 2025. The new facility is designed for automated and digital operations, uses 100% green electricity, and is primarily targeted at the fields of new energy vehicles, new energy systems, data centers, and more.
The project plans to hire 5,000 local employees, and supporting talent training and local supply chain development programs will be implemented subsequently. This base will become Infineon's third largest power module production site outside of Germany and China, filling the capacity gap in power semiconductors in Southeast Asia.
