Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--In a statement touting the first allocation of incentives from 2022's CHIPS and Science Act, which provides about $39 billion in subsidies for projects to manufacture semiconductors on U.S. soil, President Joe Biden said he expects billions of dollars' worth of awards in 2024. Industrial Info is tracking 147 semiconductor projects valued at $342 billion in the U.S.
"Over the coming year, the Department of Commerce will award billions more to make more semiconductors in America, invest in research and development capabilities to keep America at the forefront of new technologies, strengthen our national security, and create good-paying jobs," Biden said.
U.S. semiconductor manufacturing capacity has dropped from nearly 40% of global supply in 1990 to just more than 10%, according to the press release, "undermining America's national security and making our economy vulnerable to global supply chain disruptions."
The first CHIPS and Science Act award is about $35 million for BAE Systems PLC (Farnborough, England) to increase chip production at a New Hampshire plant making chips for military aircraft, including F-35 fighter jets.

Nearly 50% of the semiconductor project activity in the U.S. being tracked by Industrial Info is attributed to two companies: Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) (Santa Clara, California) and Micron Technology Incorporated (NASDAQ:MU) (Boise, Idaho).
Intel is adding two semiconductor fabrication (fab) plants at its campus in Chandler, Arizona, on the southeastern outskirts of Phoenix, with completion expected in late 2024. The project, which has an investment value of $30 billion, will entail constructing a total of 670,000 square feet and bring the total number of fabrication plants at the site to six. Subscribers to the GMI Industrial Manufacturing Project Database can click here for more details on the project.
Also underway from Intel is construction of a $10 billion grassroot semiconductor fab and $10 billion grassroot computer-processor fab at its campus in New Albany, Ohio. The semiconductor plant will produce chips for the automotive and electronic device industries in the U.S., and the latter will produce chips for personal computers (PC) and data centers. Subscribers can read detailed reports on the semiconductor and computer-processor fabs. Both projects are expected to wrap up in 2026.

On Intel's most recent earnings conference call October 27, Chief Executive Officer Pat Gelsinger said, "we have submitted all four of our major project proposals in Arizona, New Mexico, Ohio, and Oregon, representing over $100 billion of U.S. manufacturing and research investments, to the CHIPS program office and are working closely with them as they review these proposals."
In October, Micron kicked off construction of a $15 billion expansion of its Boise Fab 4 Memory and Semiconductors Campus in Boise, Idaho, which is expected to wrap up in 2030. The project involves adding a 92,000-square-foot fabrication building to expand wafer production, a 350,000-square-foot production support building, and other buildings, plus new production lines and fabrication equipment, to produce semiconductor memory chips for the automotive industry, data centers and mobile devices. Subscribers can click here to read a detailed project report.
The rest of Micron's project activity is in the development stage, with projects tentatively planned for kickoff through 2028.
Projects tentatively expected to kick off next year include Texas Instruments Incorporated's (NASDAQ:TXN) (Dallas, Texas) $11 billion expansion of its semiconductor wafer fab in Lehi, Utah. Adjacent to an existing 2 million-square-foot facility, an approximately 425,000-square-foot building with additional production and supporting equipment and systems would double the clean room space to fabricate 300-millimeter wafers to support the industrial and automotive industries.

Also planned to kick off next year is construction of SkyWater Technology Foundry's (Bloomington, Minnesota) grassroot semiconductor manufacturing plant in West Lafayette, Indiana, which is designed to feature a 600,000-square-foot facility to enable the company to manufacture semiconductors for the aerospace and defense, automotive, biomedical, and cloud and computing sectors, among others.
