A U.S. battery maker backed by the Biden administration relies on technology from a Chinese Communist Party-led company, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of Chinese media reports.
The Department of Energy (DOE) awarded KORE Power, a U.S.-based battery firm, an $850 million loan in early June to construct its “KOREPlex” battery-cell production facility in Arizona. DOE billed the loan as part of the administration’s efforts to “onshore [electric vehicle] supply chains.” However, KOREPlex will rely on technology from the firm’s long-time Chinese manufacturing partner, Do-Flouride New Materials (DFD), DOE Loan Programs Office (LPO) Director Jigar Shah said in an interview Wednesday.
“In this deal that we most recently announced two weeks ago, KORE, it’s an American company … they’ve been around for a long time, but they are using technology from a Chinese company, DFD, to manufacture battery cells in Arizona,” Shah said. However, Shah did not mention the Chinese company in question has ties to the CCP.
The Central Committee of the CCP honored DFD’s chairman, Li Shijiang, in 2021 as an “Outstanding Communist Party Member,” according to Chinese news outlet Xinhua News Agency. Shijiang had previously been honored in 2019 as one of nineteen “Outstanding Veterans of the Year” of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA), according to Chinese military news outlet PLA Daily.
Xue Xujin, who currently serves in DFD’s executive leadership as a deputy general manager, according to Reuters, is also listed as a member of the CCP in DFD’s 2016 annual report.

Has Joe forgotten HIS promise to keep everything on the up and up and account for all OUR MONEY???????
This is Criminal Joe giving real Americans the finger.
Jigar Shah, affirmative action hire and crime family mouth piece.
What now, America...
There is nothing Biden won’t support what the CCP wants to do he’s owned but rich and no place to spend it.
When the Chinese bought Hunter - and family - they got the deal of the century. Just a guess...
How much did Hunter make off this?
KORE Power is getting Chinese technology that the Chinese stole from American companies and universities.
He lied.
When the man tells the truth is the day we’ll all have heart attacks.
I remember explicitly him saying as VP, he was in charge of accounting for the funds for Solyndra....the man would have a hard time spelling ACCOUNTING....How on earth did he fool so many people for so many years?
Hang the Traitor.
For most of that time, he only fooled the voters of the State of Delaware.
He became Vice President because a lot of people were orgasmic to vote for Barack Obama. Because he’s (half) black.
To think that in the 2020 Presidential election:
1) Donald Trump received more votes than he did in 2016 AND
2) Joe Biden received more votes than any candidate in history AND
3) The election was honest
is delusional.
