Northvolt’s Post

Today, we publish Northvolt’s second Sustainability and Annual Report, detailing the presence we’ve established within the industrial landscape and progress we’ve made on our mission.  Defining a new model for its industry, Northvolt is Europe's fastest growing battery producer. This report details our approach, progress and the challenges we face, on the path to building a sustainable battery industry. Find the report here: https://lnkd.in/dH9D9Fpu

Today marks a major milestone in the realization of our project in Quebec: the construction of the first Northvolt Six building. Huge congratulations to the team and everyone involved! Learn more about the project by checking out Northvolt North America ↓

"Our recycling process isn't only made for recycling Northvolt products but products from other companies in the market as well" Battery recycling is a pivotal part of producing the world's greenest batteries. In this episode of the Northvolt Podcast, Nathalia Vieceli, Manager of R&D Revolt talks to us about the different stages of our battery recycling process. Tune in here: https://lnkd.in/de2sTE_W

In Stockholm, machinery, such as construction equipment, accounts for approximately 18% of the city’s carbon footprint. To pave a path towards a more sustainable future, City of Stockholm and Peab have joined forces to establish an emission-free construction site in the borough of Södermalm. Key to this vision is access to enough grid power to keep the electric machinery charged to work throughout the day. That’s where the importance of energy storage and sufficient charging infrastructure comes in. In addressing this charging challenge, our collaboration with Finnish charging solution provider Plugit Finland presents a powerful new solution. Powered by Voltpack Mobile technology, consisting of three Voltpack Cores, the Plugit Pro Mobile is a compact, fast-charging station with energy storage that can be installed quickly and easily, without the need for concrete foundations.

Curious what happens with our battery cells after we deliver them to Scania Group? Check this out:

Cuberg recently published a validation report of its first-generation lithium-metal battery module. The results are a testament to the exceptional performance of Cuberg's lithium-metal technology and represent the world’s first third-party validation of a lithium-metal battery module. Check out a summary of the results below ↓

Last week, we joined Scania Group’s Sustainable Transport Forum, hosted in the Stockholm archipelago. Drawing together industrial actors, sustainability experts and public policy groups, the event served as an important reminder of the stark circumstances we face in the global climate crisis. At the same time, the analysis, perspectives and outlook shared during the day highlighted how and where positive impacts are being made. Bold actions are required in the development of a more sustainable society, and we’re proud to be partnered with Scania in enabling this future. Our thanks to Professor Johan Rockström, Director of the PIK - Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and Dr Lisen Schultz, Deputy Director of the Stockholm Resilience Centre for their role in hosting. 

"We want to offer sodium-ion to all parts of the world and enable them to have their own local battery supply" Sodium-ion is set to accelerate the adoption of energy storage and electrification around the world. In this episode of the Northvolt Podcast, Andreas Haas, Senior Manager of the Sodium-ion Program, tells us all about how sodium-ion is produced, how it lacks critical metals, and offers insights into the market's future trajectory.
