According to the Warren Tribune Ultim ( GM ) purchased 144 acres next to it's existing site.
GM spokesman Dan Flores said Tuesday the land was acquired "primarily to support the placement and routing of utilities needed to service" Ultium Cells.
Beyond that, "it provides us flexibility as well, but I can't really define what flexibility means at this point in time," Flores said.
He also tamped down speculation of expansion of the plant, which is expected to start production sometime in the first quarter of 2022.
"I don't want to create a bunch of speculation that we are going to double the plant, but certainly 144 acres is a significant plot of property. But at this point in time, I have not heard of any plans to expand what hasn't even opened yet," Flores said. "Having the property increases our flexibility so we would have options in the future if needed, but I don't want to create speculation (on) something that isn't there."
Like I said before, wonder where they can find someone to give them more free land if they need to mitigate wetlands. Ever notice how this stuff happens in he winter when no one is paying attention.
