General Motors Co. and Honda Motor Co. are moving forward with their joint-venture fuel cell operation slated for Brownstown Township, six years after the companies first announced their plans to create an industry-first fuel cell manufacturing operation in Michigan.
On Tuesday, the Michigan Economic Development Corp.’s Michigan Strategic Fund board awarded a $2 million state grant for the $48.9 million project that could create up to 70 total new jobs. The MSF board in 2017 approved a $2 million grant but the companies weren’t able to meet certain timing requirements to receive it, according to the MEDC.
