At the start of the IAA, the VDMA is sounding the alarm: Europe is at risk of being left behind in strategically important battery cell production. A 5-point plan for Europe must be implemented now.

New VDMA Battery Production Executive Board aims to consolidate Europe's position in mechanical and plant engineering.

Impressive German Pavilion with more than 50 exhibitors at the Battery Show North America 2024 in Detroit

A supplement to the "Battery Production 2030" study by VDMA and Porsche Consulting takes a look at the future of battery cell production in North America.

Industry associations warn of the loss of battery technology of the future

The study "Battery Manufacturing 2030: Collaborating at Warp Speed" by Porsche Consulting on behalf of the VDMA provides groundbreaking insights for European companies that offer production solutions for battery manufacturing.

Regarding intelligent, sustainable battery production, it is important to understand the interaction of complex production lines, reduce costs and ensure process stability.

Challenges of mechanical engineering: While Asian mechanical engineering is establishing itself in battery production in Europe, the domestic industry is threatening to fall behind.

Study on the battery production market and process engineering challenges essential for the industrial production of Li-ion batteries for electromobility and stationary storage.

For the production of Li-ion batteries, the process steps for the production of Li-ion cells, module/packs, components, all-solid-state cell and battery recycling are presented clearly and in detail.

Europe's battery industry is at risk of losing out to China in global competition. Despite demand of 700-1,400 GWh by 2030, there is a lack of production capacity. Without decisive action, added value and technological sovereignty will be lost.

Batteries are of immense importance for the success of our sustainability efforts, especially the electrification of the transport sector. However, in order not to miss the boat in this key technology, we need to step up our efforts now.

Together with experts from the member companies concerned, the VDMA has written a guide to the new EU Battery Regulation. It is regarded as the new standard for product-related environmental protection regulations.

Under the heading "Battery legal requirements - From the BattG to the EU Battery Regulation", the VDMA held an event on March 20, 2023. Here is the most important in brief.
