(AP Photo/David Zalubowski, File) BEIJING (AP) — Electric vehicle maker Tesla has begun construction of a factory in Shanghai to make its Megapack energy storage batteries, Chinese state media reported Thursday. The $200 million plant in Shanghai’s Lingang pilot free trade zone will be the first Tesla battery plant outside the United States.
SEOUL, April 4, 2024 – The construction of a major battery manufacturing complex in Arizona, announced by LG Energy Solution (KRX: 373220) last year, is on track to be completed in two years with the first round of hiring expected to begin at the end of this year.
With the new battery manufacturing complex in the southwestern state, LGES will boost its production capacity in major product segments, develop more cohesive partnerships with its customers in both EV and ESS sectors, and cut back on the logistics cost by bringing its new manufacturing facilities in close proximity to its customers.
When fully operational, the complex’s average annual production capacity is expected to reach 53GWh (cylindrical batteries 36GWh, LFP ESS batteries 17GWh).
(With input from Xinhua) U.S. carmaker Tesla commenced construction of a mega factory in Shanghai on Thursday, to produce Megapack energy storage batteries, as the milestone project is slated for mass production in the first quarter of 2025.
The $200 million plant in Shanghai’s Lingang pilot free trade zone will be the first Tesla battery plant outside the United States. Tesla opened an EV plant in Shanghai in 2019 that assembles cars for China, Europe and other overseas markets. It is the No. 2 seller in the booming Chinese market for electric vehicles.
