A joint venture between General Motors and South Korean battery company LG Energy Solution has closed on a $2.5 billion federal loan to help finance three lithium-ion battery cell plants in Ohio, Tennessee, and Michigan.
The Department of Energy awarded the loan to the venture, called Ultium Cells, for the plants, which are expected to create about 11,000 jobs.

Ultium Cells will supply GM as it works to convert its light-duty fleet to all-electric by 2035.The plants are planned for Lansing, Michigan and Spring Hill, Tennessee.
