Jon Ossoff, a senator from Georgia in the US, recently engaged with the Indian EV industrialists in Mumbai. On a week-long trip to India, Ossoff invited these companies to bring their businesses to the states and open EV and renewable battery production facilities.
In a media interaction, Ossoff stated, “I had a productive engagement with Mahindra and Tata group and discussed electric vehicle production at length. Georgia, for example, now has a KIA production facility, and Hyundai along with a battery manufacturing facility. We have the fourth busiest deep water port operating with roll-on and roll-off to accommodate automobiles. Georgia is well positioned as an investment opportunity for Indian firms manufacturing electrical vehicles for the US market as well as trade and commerce in renewable batteries.”
In addition to discussing the investment opportunities with business leaders in the field of renewables, the senator also put forward his intention to deepen the commercial ties in the energy sector. He noted the fact that Georgia is highest in the production of renewable energy.
