- FID taken
- In construction
- 2022-08Samsung SDI's second-quarter 2022 results state a 'Sales boost of Gen5 battery is expected with the start of operation in Hungary Plant #2'. No company capacity figure for the site has been read, so the capacity is outstanding rather than estimated.source
Technology and measures
- Gigafactory-scale cell manufacturingcommercialElectrode coating, cell assembly and formation run at gigawatt-hour scale on one site. It is the process node rather than a chemistry: the same lines make several chemistries, and what decides whether Europe has cells is whether the lines exist and yield, not which cathode runs through them.
- Nickel-rich cellscommercialNickel-manganese-cobalt and nickel-cobalt-aluminium cathodes. Higher energy density than iron phosphate and the chemistry most European cell capacity was designed around, at the cost of depending on nickel and cobalt.
Funding
No public capital recorded for this project.
