Toyota to Build $1.29B North Carolina EV Battery Factory

Toyota Plans to Invest $13.6 Billion in Battery Tech

According to the story by The Verge, the announcement of the $13.6 billion battery tech budget includes a $9 billion that Toyota plans to invest in production as the company is attempting to electrify its own personal vehicle lineup.

As per the chief administrative officer for Toyota Motor North America, Chris Reynolds, the factory’s production is scheduled to start in 2025. With that, during the first year, Toyota is already planning to be able to produce 1.2 million battery packs for its upcoming line of EVs, as per Reynolds.

North Carolina Plans to Create 1,750 Jobs

Reynolds noted during a press conference that the investment, which he believes is so far the largest private capital investment in history for North Carolina, is expected to create 1,750 jobs and help the company develop and localize automotive battery production. To add, Reynolds said that this would help pave the way for battery EV vehicles being built in the United States.

As per the News & Observer, the Economic Investment Committee of North Carolina has already approved a $438.7 million tax incentive package in order to encourage Toyota to build in their state. With that, the company’s battery factory is considered the latest new factory planned as other car companies are scrambling to ramp up EV production.

To add, globally, battery production is expected to grow from its previous 95.3GWh in 2020 up to 410.5GWh in 2024 as per a data and analytics company, GlobalData.
