The eV battery cell market holds tremendous growth potential in the second half of the 2020s. With global demand for lithium-ion cells soaring, industry forecasts project significant sales expansion. This presents exciting opportunities, particularly for European companies with well-established manufacturing value chains.

To capitalize on this potential, companies may consider building gigafactories – though this comes with risks due to market volatility and political uncertainties. A more flexible and scalable alternative is the development of smaller production facilities, allowing for quicker adaptation to demand shifts and new technologies.

EFESO helps companies navigate the key decisions involved in designing and building eV battery cell factories. Factors such as GWh output, production capacity, cell chemistry, and value stream design are just as critical as CapEx considerations and future expansion potential.

Our unique advantage: We combine deep expertise in battery cell technology with advanced factory planning to create a 3D factory visualization with precise cost calculations – ready for implementation.

Discover how we successfully plan and execute factory projects using a ‘one-stop-shop’ approach, as demonstrated in an EFESO project for a 5 GWh battery cell factory.
