LG能源解决方案（373220.KS）周二表示，其美国子公司将以20亿美元收购其与通用汽车（GM.N）在密歇根州的电动汽车电池合资企业所持有的资产。

这家电动汽车电池制造商在一份文件中表示，这笔交易定于5月31日完成，在尽职调查后可能会发生变化。

通用汽车在特朗普政府执政期间，由于对电动汽车电池生产前景和消费者税收抵免政策的不确定性，一直在缩减其电动汽车计划，并于12月表示将出售其在该工厂的股份。

LG表示，这笔交易的成本是其今年早些时候宣布的资本开支计划的一部分，并且实际金额可能低于20亿美元。

丰田汽车（7203.T）已表示，将把其对LG能源解决方案电池的订单转移到通用汽车即将退出的密歇根州兰辛工厂。LG和通用汽车在美国俄亥俄州和田纳西州还运营着另外两家电池厂合资企业。

LG Energy Solution unit to pay $2 bln for Michigan battery venture with GM

South Korea's LG Energy Solution (373220.KS) said on Tuesday that its U.S. unit will acquire the assets held by its Michigan electric vehicle battery venture with General Motors (GM.N) for $2 billion.

The value of the deal, set to close on May 31, could change after due diligence, the EV battery maker said in a filing.

GM has been scaling back its EV plans amid uncertainty about the future of EV battery production and consumer tax credits under the Trump administration and said in December it would sell its stake in the plant.

LG and GM have two other U.S. battery plant joint ventures operating in Ohio and Tennessee.

LG said the transaction costs were part of its capital spending plan announced earlier this year, and could be lower than $2 billion.

Toyota Motor (7203.T) has said it will transfer its order for LG Energy Solution batteries to the Lansing, Michigan plant that GM is exiting.
