Mass production was scheduled to begin in the second half of 2025, targeting primarily North America.
The first plant would produce EV battery components including wiring harnesses. It will be the company’s second main overseas EV battery components plant after it recently completed a factory in Poland.
The bus ducts plant will supply large scale power distribution systems for installation mainly in North American EV, EV battery and semiconductor factories, as well as in large-scale AI data centres, according to the reports.
