S2A Modular – creator of the first electrically self-sustaining, custom and smart-connected GreenLux luxury residences and commercial buildings -officially broke ground today at its Northern Florida MegaFactory site in a private ceremony with officials from Baker County, City of Macclenny and S2A Modular. The new MegaFactory is scheduled to take approximately six months to build and is expected to be fully operational by Q4, 2022. State-of-the-art facility will manufacture revolutionary GreenLux luxury smart residences, smart commercial buildings, hotels, multifamily units, accessory units and more. Expected to generate more than $80 million of economic impact to the region – and an additional $60 million in secondary impact – the S2A MegaFactory’s is expected to have a major impact within the region. Approximately 250 new jobs will be created once the MegaFactory reaches full capacity.
The MegaFactory which encompasses several different buildings will feature two complete factory lines, five model homes, a showroom and two buildings dedicated to manufacturing building materials when completed. Built using proprietary technologies, the MegaFactory runs entirely on sustainable energy with the help of Tesla’s commercial-grade battery-storage system, the Megapack, and S2A Modular’s revolutionary Graphene solar panels mounted on covered carports. The facility will eventually have the capacity to produce 5,000 homes, commercial buildings and other properties annually.
The impact is, with S2A present within a region, home buyers and real estate developers will have ready access to higher quality, energy-efficient homes, hotels, multiuse facilities and commercial buildings produced in a climate-controlled factory using technologically advanced construction techniques. Economic development will be delivered from both the manufacturing facility, as well as the buildings that are manufactured there.
From single-family homes, multifamily buildings, world-class hotels, commercial mixed-use buildings to specialized “SH1” buildings designed to tackle the homeless crisis in the United States, more than 5,000 GreenLux units are scheduled to be built in the next couple of years – with a large wave of new orders arriving daily.
