Currently, European battery makers are importing battery production line equipment from Chinese and Korea suppliers.
In 2020, a €132 million call for batteries for transport and energy will follow. In February 2019, a new European Technology & Innovation Platform “Batteries Europe” was launched to prepare a strategic agenda for European battery research with a key role for industrial stakeholders.
In 2021, despite the coronavirus pandemic and significant supply disruptions, Europe continued its efforts and succeeded in anchoring its position as a frontrunner in the global sustainable battery market. So far, 111 industrial battery projects are being developed across EU Member States, with some 20 battery cells Gigafactories.
With the EV revolution in full swing, Europe is rapidly advancing its lithium battery manufacturing capabilities. Local producers like Basquevolt, Inobat, and LG Energy Solution are spearheading efforts to meet EU regulations and ensure supply chain resilience against geopolitical tensions.
Palmer says Inobat aims to become one of the few indigenous European manufacturers of battery cells, concentrating chemistries for specialist applications. Basquevolt, based in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain, is another indigenous European battery producer that is ramping up activity to become a leading producer of solid-state batteries.
nd battery market are also becoming noticeable in Europe. In Europe, ACC, AESC, CATL, LG Energy Solution, Northvolt, Samsung SDI and SK On produce lithium-ion cells (LIB) for traction batteries at seven locations (see Figure 3). Together, th
