Battery Cell Gigafactories
An up-to-date list of all lithium cell factories in the U.S. The average factory consumes 2.4 GW of electricity and 1 million gallons of water daily. See also battery pack gigafactories that assemble the individual battery cells into a functioning battery pack. Some battery cell factories also assemble complete battery packs onsite while others use other factories for this.
The reshoring and building of a domestic lithium battery supply chain is in full swing in the U.S., with a bevy of new battery cell manufacturing plants coming online by 2025.
The states with the most such factories include Michigan, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Georgia, which are known as the "Battery Belt".
