At full capacity, South Korea-based SK Signet's first U.S. plant will be able to produce more than 10,000 ultra-fast chargers per year. The facility is expected to create up to 183 jobs by 2026. See what else will happen at the plant—and how it could impact EV drivers in DFW and across the country.
Under the SSBCI, Texas now has the potential to receive more than $472 million in U.S. Treasury Department funds to operate two programs. One is a capital access program, which will provide portfolio insurance for business loans and has been allocated $118 million. The other is a loan guarantee program that will increase access to capital for Texas small businesses—and that's being allocated $354.1 million.
The delegation—including Texas First Lady Cecilia Abbott, Texas' secretary of state; leaders from TxEDC, the Dallas Regional Chamber, and EDCs from across North Texas; and more—will travel to London, Paris, and Frankfurt in the next few days. Its mission: sell three of Europe's leading business centers on doing business in Texas.
"We look forward to strengthening our business relationships in Europe as well as developing new ones," says Robert Allen, TxEDC president and CEO.
