The U.S.’s first anode manufacturing facility opened in Chattanooga, Tennessee on Monday, a monumental step to enhance the domestic battery supply chain, as it faces increasing demand from electric vehicle makers.
NOVONIX unveiled the ‘Riverside Recharged’ facility — a $20 million, 400,000 sq. ft. retrofit of a former GE nuclear turbine manufacturing facility — that will soon produce premium synthetic graphite. The company aims to produce 10,000 tonnes per year by 2023 and 40,000 tonnes by 2025.
