The Biden-Harris administration today awarded an additional $3 billion to support the build-out of local factories of critical materials, components, and battery recycling.
This investment will mostly go to southern states and is expected to generate 12,000 construction and manufacturing jobs, according to the DOE.
The U.S. is taking serious steps to catch up and localize its electric vehicle battery supply chain by boosting domestic production.
The funding will be distributed among 25 projects across 14 states, with the majority aimed at enhancing upstream manufacturing.
