Stellantis, Samsung commit to second battery plant for U.S.

Stellantis said it is securing about 400 gigawatt hours of battery capacity to achieve these sales targets. Stellantis is aiming for the latest plant to have an initial annual production capacity of 34 GWh. The automaker said it intends for the plant to be the sixth battery facility to support its electrification plan outlined in its Dare Forward 2030 business strategy. Stellantis is building another North American battery operation in Windsor, Ontario, that was a source of controversy. The automaker halted some construction on the joint venture facility with LG Energy Solution on May 15.
