Intel announced today that it will build two leading edge logic fabs east of Columbus at a cost of $20 billion. The new fabs are part of a reset of Intel's manufacturing, a plan called IDM 2.0 , that would see Intel regain its ability to make chips at the most advanced nodes and offer foundry services to other companies. So, why Ohio?

V Kamakoti , director of IIT-Madras, and the man behind India’s first indigenous computer microprocessor Shakti, says the move to reimburse part of salary will help fabless startups as cost of quality chip design talent is quite prohibitive. Fabs are microchip manufacturing plants mostly concentrated in Taiwan and the US.

With subsidies long in place for nuclear, coal and gas in the US along with the cheap cost of production for coal and natural gas, solar is essentially competing with that $0.10/kWh kWh average cost of electricity in the United States and globally. It is not only wise we devote our resources toward solar technology; it is essential.

All these methods seek to detect anomalies in the natural environment, as represented in sophisticated models of baseline conditions that have been developed within the last decade, thanks in part to Moore’s Law advances in computing power. Governments once dominated space because the cost of building and launching satellites was so great.

In addition, the price of LFP batteries is competitive, which reduces the production cost of electric vehicles, especially small- and medium-sized vehicles. For VinFast, exploring the local production of LFP batteries in Vietnam is part of the car maker’s efforts to establish a clean energy ecosystem and localize parts supply.

The semi-conductor shortage, sourced largely from problems at the world’s biggest semi conductor maker, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), due to a reported water shortage, and a huge boost in home electronics demand due to Covid, has crippled car production in the US and in Europe and Asia for the last few months.

That success can be traced in part to Kim, now an emeritus professor at KAIST. But the industry had yet to mass-produce its own chips beyond basic integrated circuits such as CMOS watch chips, in large part due to a lack of semiconductor specialists. Their view of what it means to be an engineer changed profoundly and permanently.
