FORSYTH COUNTY, N.C. --

A company that provides parts and services for industrial and power company turbines and compressors plans to add another 110 jobs at its central North Carolina plant.

North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue announced Tuesday that TurboCare Inc. will expand its operations in the town of Rural Hall in Forsyth County with a $30 million investment.

Perdue's office said the average wage for the new jobs will be nearly $46,000 a year, compared to the annual wage in the county of about $40,000. The company already employs 176 people at its plant.

The governor said the expansion occurred in part due to a $220,000 grant from the One North Carolina Fund, which provides taxpayer-funded financial assistance to encourage industrial expansion.

TurboCare is a subsidiary of Siemens Energy.
