Sila’s Moses Lake plant opening on track

MOSES LAKE — According to Sila Nanotechnologies Vice President Chris Dougher, the opening of Sila’s Moses Lake manufacturing plant, which will eventually mass produce the company’s Titan Silicon anode, has been going well and is on track “The first really big milestone, or public milestone, was the groundbreaking in November,” Dougher said. “We had the (Department of Energy) here, as well as a handful of customers with Mercedes and others that came on-site and celebrated the early work that we’re doing out back getting our foundations in.” Sila purchased the Moses Lake site, 160 acres and a 600,000 square foot building located on Road N Northeast, about a year and a half ago, Dougher said.
