That grant is only for nonprofits and only for "pilot manufacturing and testing", not useful mass manufacturing.

Good catch. One has to wonder how many private non-profit entities there are in the world that want to build a "pilot manufacturing and testing" plant, that

- Are able to put up $5m of their own money in order to receive $25m. - Are not associated with a university. - Are not a public non-profit electrical utility (heaven forbid!)

One, as it turns out. Who received $28m. According to the list of grants given under the program.

Smells a bit off.
