Political moves have now created new facts on the ground: at the end of 2019, the European Commission declared battery cell production to be an “important project of common European interest” or “IPCEI” for short, meaning that it can now be subsidised by Germany and other EU member states to the tune of billions of euros.
Germany, in particular, has the ambition to become the centre of European battery production. Read on for an overview of what is being planned by whom. Battery cells are at the heart of an electric car – both technically and economically. These energy-rich cells account for around one third of the value added of electrical vehicles.
Both German carmakers and Chinese manufacturers are starting to ramp up the creation of battery cell factories in the Federal Republic. Construction has been underway in Arnstadt since October 2019, and Chinese battery giant CATL plans to commission its new factory at the Erfurt motorway intersection in mid-2022.
