"Georgia's electric mobility boom is taking place because our state is second to none for companies looking to invest, relocate, expand, and innovate -- not because the federal government continues to put their thumb on the scale, favouring a few companies over the industry as a whole," Kemp said, according to advance remarks of his speech at Anovion Technologies.
"When President Biden and others falsely try to take credit for Georgia's success, don't forget that next year is an election year," Kemp said. Hyundai Motor Group, which is building a $5.5-billion plant to assemble electric vehicles and batteries in Ellabell, Georgia, near Savannah, has said the tax credits are unfair because its electric vehicles aren't currently eligible. Kemp referenced the South Korean conglomerate's criticism in his speech Tuesday, saying "that approach simply doesn't work."
For his part, Kemp said again Tuesday that he wants to make Georgia the "e-mobility capital of the nation" as his second-term legacy. Kemp attributed Anovion's choice of location to state and local officials, saying "they don't posture or showboat, and they don't try to steal credit."
