President Biden is set to announce a deal with Intel that includes up to $8.5 billion in grants and $11 billion in loans to build semiconductor plants in four states. This funding is part of the CHIPS and Science Act passed by Congress in 2022 to enhance US production of electronic devices. Intel will invest over $100 billion, potentially offset by $25 billion in tax credits, creating around 30,000 jobs. The aim is to address the reliance on imports, combat price spikes, and shortages in industries like cars and appliances.
