Re: Green Jobs
Nissan Motor Company CEO Makoto Uchida has announced a $250 million investment in the company's US powertrain plant in Decherd, Tennessee, to support the electrification of its lineup.
While Uchida did not say when the investment will happen or detail what exactly it is for, he described the move as part of Nissan's stepped-up US electrification plans as EVs become increasingly popular in America and government initiatives support that demand.
The Decherd investment boosts Nissan's new commitments to US electrification to $750 million after last year's announcement of a $500 million investment to retool its Canton, Mississippi, assembly plant to build two all-electric sedans.Comment

The Energy Department on Thursday tentatively awarded a $2 billion loan to battery recycling company Redwood Materials, which the company says will allow it to produce enough battery materials to enable the production of more than a million electric vehicles a year.
The Nevada-based company said it plans to ultimately ramp up to producing 100 gigawatt-hours annually of ultra-thin battery-grade materials from both new and recycled sources in the United States for the first time.Comment
