EA 1713: Final Environmental Assessment
Celgard LLC Electric Drive Vehicle Battery and Component Manufacturing Initiative Project Concord, North Carolina
Celgard LLC Electric Drive Vehicle Battery and Component Manufacturing Initiative Project Concord, North Carolina\
DOE issued a final EA that analyzes the potential environmental impacts of awarding a grant to partially fund the construction of a small industrial facility for the manufacture of separator materials for commercial hybrid-electric vehicle batteries.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) proposes, through a cooperative agreement with Celgard LLC (Celgard), to partially fund the construction of a small industrial facility (approximately 135,000 square feet) on approximately 20.6 acres of land for the manufacturing of separator materials for commercial hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV) batteries. The facility would be constructed on parcels within the International Business Park, Concord, North Carolina. This facility would support the anticipated growth in the lithium-ion battery industry
and, more specifically, the HEV industry. If approved, DOE would provide approximately 50 percent of the funding for the project.
