Europe has been seeking to attract EV battery makers to build factories in the region - home to carmakers such as Volkswagen and Stellantis - as it tries to cut dependency on Asia and win a green subsidies race with the United States. Production plans, however, have faced bureaucratic hurdles, production problems and slower EV demand than expected.
By establishing local gigafactories, automakers, and battery manufacturers can reduce supply chain dependencies, ensure a stable and timely supply of batteries, and potentially benefit from government incentives and regulations that promote domestic battery production.
"The UK needs 100GWh of battery manufacturing capacity by 2030, but we did not see a clear government plan to deliver that ambition." EVE's project in Coventry could attract up to £2 billion in private investment, but this funding will likely rely on government subsidies worth hundreds of millions of pounds.
* CUPRIJA: Slovak startup InoBat plans to build a gigafactory with government funding of 419 million euros. It will be operational by 2025, with an initial capacity of 4 GWh and a target of 32 GWh. Slovakia * SURANY: Inobat and China's Gotion High Tech (002074.SZ) plans to build an EV battery factory in Europe by 2026 with initial output of 20 GWh.
The remaining 43 percent of the announced maximum production capacities come primarily from Asian cell manufacturers - apart from China, mainly from Korean companies. Distribution of battery cell production capacities announced for 2030 in Europe among European and non-European manufacturers
