As Director of Public Affairs & Government Relations, Morgan Crapps leads external affairs for Redwood Materials in South Carolina. Redwood Materials is developing a fully closed-loop, domestic supply chain for lithium-ion batteries. Redwood recycles, refines and remanufactures critical battery components using as many recycled batteries as possible – localizing a 50,000-mile global battery supply chain on a single site. Redwood is building its second battery materials campus in Ridgeville, South Carolina.

Redwood plans to ramp up to 1,500 employees and will invest $3.5 billion at the campus over the next decade, producing over 100 GWh of cathode and anode components per year – enough to power more than one million EVs.

Prior to joining Redwood, Morgan was a principal at Parker Poe Consulting, where she led site selection and incentive negotiation projects for manufacturers across the country. She has also practiced law at a large regional law firm and served as a project manager and international business recruiter for the South Carolina Department of Commerce. She is a graduate of Clemson University and the University of South Carolina School of Law.
