Battery company expects to start production in 2024
MOSES LAKE — Group14 Technologies, which aims to produce silicon anodes for rechargeable batteries, has bought nearly 44 acres in Moses Lake and has started construction on its new production facility, which it expects to complete in 2024. “When we’re up and going, this will be the largest facility of its kind in the world,” said Group14 Chief Operating Officer Eric Robinson, who is also heading up the company’s operations in Moses Lake. “We’re going to build the first two modules out on Wheeler Road, and each of these modules will be capable of producing 2,000 tons of our SCC55 (silicon-carbon composite) material each year.” If all works out, Robinson said construction should be complete and production will start next year.
