Volvo to Get Energy Grants for EV Trucks

Published: July 11, 2024
The Biden administration is allocating nearly $2 billion in grants to support the expansion and restart of electric vehicle manufacturing facilities across eight states, including key battlegrounds like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. This initiative aims to retain and create thousands of union jobs in the automotive sector and drive the transition towards clean energy technologies. The grants will benefit various automakers, such as General Motors, Fiat Chrysler, and Volvo Group, leading to advancements in electric vehicle production and related supply chain components. This substantial investment signals a concerted effort to boost the U.S. auto industry's competitiveness and sustainability, aligning with President Biden's climate agenda. By incentivizing the shift towards electric vehicles, the administration aims to address greenhouse gas emissions, reduce reliance on foreign competition, and create economic opportunities for American workers. The grants are poised to have a significant impact on job creation, supporting union workers and communities that have historically been pivotal to the automotive industry's success.
