CHARLOTTE, N.C. , Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Nucor Corporation (NYSE: NUE) announced that it will invest $60 million to expand its Nucor Towers & Structures facility in Trinity, Alabama, subject to regulatory and other approvals.

"Utilities across the country are making significant investments to strengthen and modernize the nation's power grid," said Leon Topalian, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Nucor Corporation. "By expanding our Trinity facility adjacent to our Decatur sheet mill, we can combine American-made steel with highly efficient manufacturing to better serve our utility customers and support their long-term infrastructure needs.
