Company partnered with GM to build Lordstown facility
Mar 14, 2021
With a giant battery factory in northeast Georgia hanging in the balance of a trade dispute, South Korean company LG Energy Solution is now telling some Georgia officials that it could build its own factory in the state if rival SK Innovation can’t proceed.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports LG Energy Solution CEO Jong Hyun Kim wrote a letter to Democratic U.S. Sen Raphael Warnock on Wednesday saying LG “is prepared to do whatever we can to help the people and workers of Georgia.”
Kim also wrote that if some other entity acquires the SK plant, LG could help run the $2.6 billion electric-vehicle battery plant in Commerce, where SK plans to hire 2,600 workers.
LG Energy Solution will invest more than $4.5 billion in its U.S. battery production business through 2025.
The investment will see the company boost its local battery production capacity by 70 gigawatt-hours (GWh) and LG has confirmed that it will built two new plants. This will add 4,000 new jobs in the U.S., while the company will select the locations of the new battery manufacturing plants in the first half of the year.
In a statement, president of LG Energy Solution’s Michigan unit, Denise Gray, said the investments are being made in response to the growing demand for electric vehicles, adding the new manufacturing facilities will indirectly create another 6,000 jobs during their construction.
