Swedish zinc-ion battery cell technology specialist Enerpoly has opened a large-scale factory in northern Sweden. The 6,500 m2 facility is a key development in Enerpoly’s ambitions to make Europe a manufacturing powerhouse for zinc ion cell technologies.
The plant will boost Enerpoly’s ongoing co-development of market-ready battery products with customers, and allow the company to conduct pilots targeting commercial, industrial and utility applications. It has state-of-the-art dry electrode manufacturing equipment, an end-to-end battery production line and process development capabilities.
Commissioning of the facility has already begun and production is expected to start in 2025. The aim is to achieve a final capacity throughput of 100 MWh per year by 2026.
Enerpoly then launched work on the EPIC site for the first time secured financing from backers including the Swedish Energy Agency in 2023. Just a year earlier, it assembled its first commercial prototype zinc-ion battery cell.
The company has named its new building the Enerpoly Production Innovation Center (EPIC) to reflect its scaling strategy.
