The battery belt — a region stretching from Michigan down into Georgia where the bulk of EV and battery manufacturing is concentrated — has yet another project.
GM-Samsung SDI has picked Indiana for the site of a $3 billion battery cell factory that is slated to begin operations in 2026. Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb made the announcement Tuesday, noting that the factory will be located east of New Carlisle and is expected to create 1,700 manufacturing jobs.
