th<\/sup> anniversary. VKTR will help support the energy transition in Indonesia, in the race to zero.\u201d<\/p>\nSustainable battery nickel for electric vehicles<\/h3>\n Generating lower carbon emissions, transparent supply chains, and securing raw materials, is a key part of Britishvolt\u2019s strategic roadmap, as well as inserting its own ESG commitments with its partners.<\/p>\n
As the world transitions away from fossil fuels to a clean energy transition that forefronts renewable energy and low carbon releases, sustainable batteries will be at the very core of this successful switch. Currently there are clear market signals reflecting the need to secure strategic relationships in order to guarantee a supply of key raw materials, such as nickel sulphate.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe UK is leading the way towards zero emissions, and an essential part of our automotive industry\u2019s transition is ensuring sustainability across the entire supply chain and lifespan of electric vehicles,\u201d commented Minister for Investment, Lord Grimstone.<\/p>\n
Nickel supply chain in Indonesia<\/h3>\n Indonesia is the world\u2019s largest nickel producing country and is rapidly developing its own electric vehicle industry. This partnership deal will support the country\u2019s 2060 net-zero commitments.<\/p>\n
Bakrie & Brothers is a leading industrial company listed on the Indonesia stock exchange. The initial agreement will be followed with a study looking at the potential to develop a battery gigaplant in Indonesia, and potentially other locations. A prime focus of this partnership will be on how to drive embedded carbon out of the supply chain. It is Britishvolt\u2019s aim to get the carbon content of its battery production to 25kg\/KWh, from a global average of 93kg\/KWh.<\/p>\n
\u201cIndonesia has enormous, unprecedented potential that will see global investment flow into the country as it aims to become a world leader on the international battery stage,\u201d explained Orral Nadjari, CEO and Founder of Britishvolt. \u201cI am delighted to be part of Indonesia\u2019s journey to net-zero, and I look forward to seeing the outcome of this partnership with VKTR.\u201d<\/p>\n
Indovolt will also look at other countries for potential battery plants. VKTR has been searching for a partner to build a 15-Gigawatt hour (GWh) battery plant with, in Indonesia. The deal comes at a time of surging raw materials prices, exacerbated by the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the resulting international sanctions..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
