The Biden administration has announced the allocation of nearly $2 billion in grants to support the expansion and revitalization of electric vehicle manufacturing and assembly sites in eight states across the U.S. These grants, totaling $1.7 billion, aim to create and retain thousands of union jobs while bolstering auto-based communities that have historically been vital to the American economy.
The states set to benefit from these grants include Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, and Virginia. The funding will cover various aspects of the automotive supply chain, encompassing parts for electric motorcycles, school buses, hybrid powertrains, heavy-duty commercial truck batteries, and electric SUVs.
