Sandia holds ceremony for construction advancement

By ExchangeMonitor

Sandia National Laboratories is advancing construction of its new Power Sources Capability (PSC) facility, a major infrastructure project supporting the nuclear security mission, the lab said last week.

The lab in New Mexico held a ceremony April 14 for the installation of the final beam in the facility, according to a press release

The roughly 136,000-square-foot building will consolidate power source research, design and production activities currently dispersed across multiple facilities. The project is intended to replace aging infrastructure and provide flexibility for evolving mission requirements.

The release said the PSC facility, which will cost around $400 million once finished, will enhance capabilities tied to national security applications. Construction began August 2025, with construction expected to be completed in 2028.
