MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - A South Korean company says Alabama is one
of five states it is considering for an electric vehicle
manufacturing plant that will create 2,600 jobs over the next five
years.
CT&T Company Ltd. says it plans to decide by September among
sites in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and
California.
Curt Westlake, a spokesman for the company's U.S. branch, said
the sites will see full assembly of electric cars within 12 months.
Westlake said CT&T plans to build a North American headquarters,
a research and development center and several manufacturing
facilities, which could be spread among multiple states or
consolidated on one site.
He said CT&T would evaluate sites based on the presence of a
skilled work force, the transportation infrastructure and the
incentives offered.
