That grant is only for nonprofits and only for "pilot manufacturing and testing", not useful mass manufacturing.

It is a battery cell manufacturing line and with the intent to facilitate providing research resources to California battery business. Considering the claim was that you couldn't make lithium batteries in CA, having a new manufacturing line shows that's incorrect. It also shows the state sees it as a need. I haven't seen anyone provide any info showing it isn't possible.

It's a pilot program, nobody said you can't uneconomically do research, but you can't build things in quantity.

Like I thought you've got nothing.

Just like this program you keep bringing up :)
