Intel awarded $7.865B CHIPS Act grant
The U.S. Department of Commerce confirmed on Tuesday it has awarded 7.865 billion U.S. dollars to chip giant Intel under the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act.
The act was signed into
"Strong bipartisan support for restoring American technology and manufacturing leadership is driving historic investments that are critical to the country's long-term economic growth and national security," Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger said in a statement.
"Intel is deeply committed to advancing these shared priorities as we further expand our U.S. operations over the next several years," Gelsinger said.
The sum is lower than the potential highest figure announced in March, when the White House said it reached an agreement with the Department of Commerce to give Intel a grant of "up to" 8.5 billion dollars.
