WORK FORGES AHEAD AS SCHEDULED ON KENTUCKY EV BATTERY PLANTS

Dirt has been moved, concrete poured and steel structures are being built according to plan so far the companies said Production is scheduled to start in 2025 at the two battery manufacturing plants being built in Glendale, Kentucky. The venture will employ 5,000 people to produce batteries for future Ford and Lincoln electric vehicles.

"Ford's made some big bets on electrification, because we believe in our ability to lead the electric revolution," said Dave Nowicki, director of manufacturing operations for EV programs at Ford.

Ford and its partner SK On, a South Korean electric vehicle battery developer and manufacturer, have invested $5.8 billion in the Kentucky project - known as BlueOval SK Battery Park.
