After engineers complete internal work, look for site work to resume at 6K Energy, located in Airport Industrial Park on James Lawrence Road in Madison County, on the project for the cathode – negatively charged electrode by which electrons enter an electrical device – materials production division of 6K Incorporated.
Creating 230 new jobs, the battery material manufacturing plant is initially investing $200 million in the 120,000-square-foot facility for construction and equipment – a number that is expected to expand to $250 million.
6K Energy’s PlusCAM factory will be the world’s first UniMelt plasma cathode plant, providing low cost, ultra sustainable production of battery material for localized supply chains in the United States.
6K Energy – the world’s only sustainable production for battery materials – also has a production site in Pennsylvania.
Technology for 6K Energy was developed at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
