France aims to produce enough batteries for its own car industry by 2027 and ultimately become an exporter. The sector is currently dominated by China, where energy is far cheaper than in Europe. The new gigafactory is expected to consume as much electricity as a town of 190,000 people.
France is aiming to supply its automotive industry with enough batteries assembled in the country by 2027 - and even export French batteries thereafter. But it is still handicapped by the price of its energy, compared with China and the United States, which heavily subsidise this industry.
Both those countries plan to open battery factories of their own by 2025, two among some 50 similar projects that have been announced in the European Union. France also plans to build another three battery factories in the same northern region of Hauts-de-France, which has been nicknamed "Battery Valley".
The deployment of these plants by 2026, which represents an investment of €1.5 billion, will contribute to the development in France of a value chain for the production and recycling of batteries for electric vehicles, as well as to French autonomy in the supply of strategic materials.
A gigafactory for lithium-ion batteries in France will create jobs and boost the European battery industry to drive cleaner mobility Anastasia Walch-Guinebert has always enjoyed solving problems and figuring out ways to improve things. She also found the continuous innovation in the field of energy transition fascinating.
France also plans to build another three battery factories in the same northern region of Hauts-de-France, which has been nicknamed "Battery Valley". One will be located near the city of Douai, while two others will be in Dunkirk.
