MAGA Republicans are seething because President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act is off to a booming start with more new jobs coming from overseas and new factories being built right here in the United States.
You would think MAGA Republicans would be thrilled to death that their red states will be receiving the revenue for their economy and employing people in their state.
But no, MAGA Republicans are seething with anger because President Biden got a huge win and is getting credit for another campaign promise that was kept.
That just goes to show you how anti American MAGA Republicans are. They wanted to sabotage the United States economy and the lives of American workers just so they could have a talking point to use against the President claiming he "didn't keep his campaign promise". That's about as anti American as you can get.
So, MAGA Republicans tried to sabotage jobs coming back to America and the opening of new factories and plants which will save American cities and the livelihoods of American workers. But the joke is on them, because Joe Manchin came through to pass the bill and now President Biden is surging in the polls. Plus companies have immediately started to bring back overseas jobs as soon as Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law.
Every single Republican in both the House and Senate voted against the Inflation Reduction Act just like they voted against every other Biden bill that the Democratic House and passed which benefits the lives of middle class Americans.
Now during the midterm campaigns, Democrats can ask MAGA Republicans why they voted against the Inflation Reduction Act which will bring back millions of jobs and open up new factories and plants all across America.
MAGA Republicans do not care about the middle class. Their constant "NO" votes the last two years have proven it.
MAGA Republicans did nothing but attempt to obstruct the Inflation Reduction Act from passing and every single Republican voted against the Inflation Reduction Act. Why on Earth would anyone vote for a MAGA Republican when they do absolutely nothing to help Americans and the United States economy?
President Biden has been the most pro union and American blue collar president that we have had in decades. And his historic legislation that's been passed to help blue collar workers has proven it.
Here is another company that will bring jobs and production to the United States thanks to President Biden and the Inflation Reduction Act.
Instead of opening up a product that says "MADE IN CHINA" or "made in some other country" it's going to be stamped "MADE IN THE USA" thanks to Democrats and President Biden who are truly looking out for Americans and the United States.
Just more of Biden's agenda that is making America #1.
Zinc8 to manufacture its first zinc-air batteries in the U.S.Canadian battery developer Zinc8 Energy Solutions announced its plans to begin battery production in the United States incentivized by manufacturing production credits within the Inflation Reduction Act.
Zinc8 Energy Solutions Inc. announced that the company’s inaugural commercial production facility will be based in Ulster County in New York. Based upon comprehensive analysis done by the company, the recently announced Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) manufacturing production credits provide distinct and direct benefits to Zinc8, influencing its production plans in the United States.
Zinc8 Energy Solutions has developed a proprietary flow battery technology that it claims is able to deliver power in the range from 20 kW to 50 MW that can store and discharge energy durations from 4 to 100 hours. Scalability and higher capacity is achieved with an increase in the size of storage tanks that hold zinc particles. The modular battery can be configured to support a wide array of long-duration applications for microgrids and utilities, as well as for commercial and industrial projects.
Unlike lithium-ion technology, which requires new stacks to scale, Zinc8 says it has completely decoupled the linkage between energy and power. This means that scaling Zinc8’s technology can be accomplished by simply increasing the size of the fuel tank and quantity of recharged zinc fuel. According to the manufacturer, the technology promises zero capacity fade over an extensive lifetime, and the batteries are non-flammable, non-toxic and sustainable with stable supply chains for mass production.
The company chose Ulster County in Upstate New York after Senator Chuck Schumer personally called the CEO of Zinc8, Ron MacDonald, to urge the company to expand their operations in New York state and particularly to Ulster County.
The Canadian company was enticed to move to the USA as a result of the Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit included in the IRA, which provides incentives to battery manufacturers as well as to critical mineral processing companies. Every eligible battery cell will receive a $35 credit, scaling with the capacity of the battery, with incentives to last at their initial level until 2029, before phasing down from 2030 to a phase out stage beginning in 2032. There is also $10 billion support available for construction of clean energy tech factories, or for retrofitting existing factories with tools and production lines to make clean energy equipment and components. President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law includes $6 billion incentives to support R&D and production of batteries in the United States, which bolsters the domestic supply chain.
“This represents some direct and beneficial credit opportunities for Zinc8,” adds MacDonald. “It is abundantly clear that with the introduction of the IRA, US policymakers, led by Senator Schumer, are taking real action by introducing incentives that benefit both the climate and the economy. We have received tremendous support both at the federal and state level as we continue to analyze possible sites for our first manufacturing facility.”
Zinc8 signed a letter of intent to move into iPark87, which is the former TechCity campus now being redeveloped as an EPA cleanup site. Senator Schumer said that with Zinc8 as an anchor tenant of iPark87, the Hudson Valley could see up to 500 new, good paying clean energy jobs.
“Zinc8 is the jolt of electricity the Hudson Valley needs, and is proof positive that when you invest in fighting climate change you are investing in creating good-paying jobs, new economic growth, and a brighter future for our communities. As the EPA officially begins cleanup of this once-contaminated asbestos dumping ground, I can think of no better way to usher in a renaissance for Ulster County than by making this the foundation for supercharging the fight against climate change with an investment in clean tech manufacturing,” said Senator Schumer.
In January of this year Zinc8 announced that it would be installing its technology at a New York City housing complex in a trial run by the New York State Energy Research and Development Agency (NYSERDA). The plan is for a 100kW/1.5MWh zinc-air energy storage system (ZESS) to be installed at Fresh Meadows Community Apartments in Queens, New York, to support and enhance the economics of a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system currently under construction, along with an existing photovoltaic system.
