On Monday, the Department of Energy announced “a conditional commitment” for $2.5 billion to GM and LG’s 50-50 joint venture called Ultium Cells LLC.
“While this conditional commitment demonstrates the Department’s intent to finance the project, several steps remain, and certain conditions must be satisfied before the Department issues a final loan,” the DOE said in a blog posted Monday.
