Show Notes

In the age of supply chain insecurity, one Opportunity Zone project is bringing cobalt processing—and critical jobs—back to U.S. soil. Gil Michel-Garcia of EVelution Energy joins the show to discuss how OZs are helping to power a major industrial comeback via a $322 million cobalt processing facility being developed in Arizona. Backed by OZ equity and driven by federal policy—including President Trump’s recent executive order on critical minerals—this project is onshoring a vital part of America's supply chain for electric vehicles, battery storage, and national defense.
