ArcelorMittal proposes to build an advanced manufacturing facility in Calvert, Alabama to produce high-quality non-grain oriented electrical steel (NOES) - a critical material essential in electric vehicle motors and other clean energy technologies. The project will fill a critical gap in the domestic supply chain, reducing dependency on imports while supporting decarbonization of the automotive sector.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
