Construction continues on 6K Energy, the cathode (negatively charged electrode by which electrons enter an electrical device) materials production division of 6K Inc., in the Airport Industrial Park on James Lawrence Road in Madison County..
The largest single investment in the history of Madison County is expected to create 230 new jobs.
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.
The battery material manufacturing plant will initially invest $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 – 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.
