Addressing the Practical and Operational Challenges of Scaling Battery Production

Format: Talk/ Panel Session 

As Europe races to scale battery production, manufacturers face mounting pressure to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and secure reliable supply chains. With gigafactories expanding at pace, how can the industry navigate automation, workforce readiness, and material bottlenecks to compete globally? This session examines the real-world challenges and solutions in achieving high-yield, cost-effective, and sustainable mass production. 

 

Key Themes: 

  • Optimising manufacturing processes (automation, cost efficiency, reducing waste). 
  • Overcoming supply chain bottlenecks specific to large-scale operations. 
  • Leveraging lessons from global production leaders (e.g., China, Korea).
