WASHINGTON - The Biden administration said it is awarding Intel nearly $20 billion in grants and loans on Wednesday, supercharging the company's domestic semiconductor chip output and marking the government's largest outlay to subsidize leading-edge chip production.
The goal is to reduce reliance on China and Taiwan, as the share of global semiconductor manufacturing capacity in the U.S. has fallen from 37% in 1990 to 12% in 2020, according to the Semiconductor Industry Association. Commerce is dedicating $28 billion for government subsidies for chips manufacturing - although it has more than $70 billion in requests - and also has $75 billion in lending authority.
Last month, the Biden administration awarded $1.5 billion to GlobalFoundries, the world's third-largest contract chipmaker, to build a semiconductor production facility in Malta, New York, and expand existing operations there and in Burlington, Vermont.
