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.
Increasing the use of renewables in the energy mix allows energy imports to be reduced, with clear benefits for Europe’s energy independence and security. The decarbonisation of the energy mix and reductions in overall CO2 emissions are other clear, positive outcomes of an increased use of Battery Energy Storage in Europe.
In the energy sector, batteries are necessary to store renewable energy and contribute to the stability of the electrical grid. Moreover, batteries power everyday applications, such as smartphones, tablets, power tools, and robots and have become a significant job engine for millions of people around the world.
There is consensus that localised battery cell and finished battery manufacturing in Europe is a priority for the automotive industry based there. According to Carrenza at Basquevolt, it is all about risk management and the avoidance of exposure geopolitical conflict that puts the supply chain in danger.
In order to deploy renewables and to release their potential for ensuring a stable and secure energy supply, Europe needs to work to overcome the intrinsic limits of renewables. One solution to these challenges is Battery Energy Storage.
Indeed, batteries’ applications in automotive and industrial vehicles as well as for the energy sector are key tools for this transition. In the transport sector, the hybridisation and electrification of vehicles reduce CO2 emissions, whilst the use of batteries in industrial vehicles supports both decarbonisation and noise reduction.
China benefitted from its move into mass production of battery-powered consumer electronics from Japan and Korea in the 1990s, and from its investment in the mining and refining the rare earth metals needed for battery production. Likewise, it is in the lead in terms of the battery production line equipment manufacturing.
