Micron has signed a union deal to develop the $15 billion semiconductor manufacturing facility in Boise, Idaho, US. The company will hire 3700 construction workers from the labor unions. This could provide the company with a possible benefit in the tough competition for federal funds. Micron expects to commence the operations of the semiconductor facility by 2026. In addition, the project is projected to create more than 2,000 permanent jobs by the end of the decade.

The US government is granting USD 100 billion in subsidies to bolster the country’s semiconductor manufacturing industry. The Commerce Department plans to announce the initial grants by the end of this year. Applicants who have reached construction agreements with unions are strongly preferred. Micron made provisions in the agreement for workforce development, travel rewards, and a focus on hiring locally.

Micron’s semiconductor fabrication project in Idaho is aligned with the goals of the Chips and Science Act. The new unit will be the first new memory fab in the US in 20 years. Furthermore, this project is one of the largest investments in Idaho’s history. Additionally, Micron is also investing USD 100 billion in New York State to boost semiconductor projects for the next two decades. Micron is one of the largest manufacturers of semiconductors in the world.

What is the Chips and Science Act?

The CHIPS and Science Act, officially known as the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science Act of 2022, is a landmark U.S. federal law signed into effect on August 9, 2022. The act is aimed at boosting U.S. leadership in semiconductor manufacturing and research. Some of the key components of the CHIPs and Science Act include:

• $52 billion in subsidies for semiconductor manufacturing in the US.
• $13 billion for semiconductor research and workforce training.
• $25% investment tax credit for costs of manufacturing equipment.
• $10 billion to establish regional technology hubs across the country
• $1.5 billion for promoting and deploying open-source wireless technologies
