I moved to Kansas from Arkansas when my father got a job at the Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant in Desoto Kansas. Now that plant will be making Batteries for electric autos. I wish my dad was still alive to see this.
The company made the announcement overnight. The new facility will produce cylindrical Li-ion batteries for electric vehicles. Mass production is targeted to begin by the end of March 2025.
I think it was because the governor pushed for it. Lots of ads but here is what I found: https://www.kshb.com/news/local-new...-4b-electric-vehicle-battery-plant-in-de-sotoberkeman said:Do you have any idea why they chose that location?
