Scout Motors in SC is set to begin construction after officials gathered in Blythewood, SC, where a new I-77 exit will be added to accommodate the EV plant.
Scout Motors, a Volkswagen subsidiary expected to bring 4,000 jobs to SC, got approval to resume construction after a pause concerning environmental impact.
The AESC battery plant in Florence County received an additional investment of $810 million that will create 450 additional jobs at the battery plant located across from Wilson High School.
Commerce Department chief Harry Lightsey said the additional money is justified because Envision AESC "in recent months" agreed to invest more and create more jobs.
