Its annual output was 100,000 batteries, and it will be the world’s largest automotive Battery manufacturing plant. At present, the production line that the factory has started production is making batteries used in the general Chevrolet Volt and modern electric oil hybrid vehicles.

As market demand continues to increase, LG Chemical Co., Ltd. decided to invest KRW 2 trillion (approximately US$ 1.842 billion) at the completion of the construction of the LG Battery Plant No. 1. A second battery plant with an area of ​​67,000 square meters will be built next to Battery Plant No. 1. At the same time, it started the construction of an overseas battery plant in Michigan, USA.
