Gigafactory
The Italian start-up is building a gigafactory with a 45MWh production capacity for lithium-ion batteries for EVs
Nissan has today unveiled plans to build a new £1 billion gigafactory in Sunderland
Successful candidates will be based at the new facility at Bessemer Park
Number of petrol and diesel cars is predicted to see a drop of 16.6 million units by January 2030, new report suggests
The facility is predicted to create thousands of green jobs and attract up to £2bn of investment
The giant lithium-ion manufacturing facilities will produce enough batteries each year to supply one million EVs
Construction is set to start by 2022 and is forecast to create approximately 2,000 new jobs
Production in the gigafactory is scheduled to begin in 2023 with a capacity of 16GWh of battery cells which will later increase to 50GWh
The permit includes noise, water protection and dust emission requirements the electric automobile manufacturer has to follow during the development of the facility
The plant, which is expected to cover 80 plus hectares land, will produce green lithium-ion batteries for use in electric vehicles
