More battery plants in the USA for LG Chem?
As automakers increase their initiatives to build electric cars and battery availability tightens, LG Chem plans to build a new plant in Kentucky or Tennessee to join the plant it already operates in Michigan.
LG Chem already operates a battery assembly facility in Holland, Michigan, which supplies batteries to GM for the Chevy Bolt EV. The new plant would supply Volvo, Fiat Chrysler, and potentially Hyundai and Volkswagen, as well as additional batteries to GM.
