Talga is investing in battery anode production in northern
Talga is making significant investments in anode production, providing the opportunity to significantly reduce CO2 emissions in the manufacturing of, for example, electric vehicles and energy storage systems. The anode constitutes half of the active material in a modern lithium-ion battery. The development process is vertically integrated and includes in-house mining in Vittangi - where some of the world's highest grade graphite mineral resource is located, as well as material processing and manufacturing of sustainable anode materials at a new anode refinery in Luleå.
In the initial phase,
"Talga's ambition is to be at the forefront in terms of design, materials and production processes, where we will provide advice on new technology and innovative solutions," says Amandus Yngvesson, Advanced Solutions Manager, Industrial IT within
"Building a new and sustainable European value chain for battery anodes is both important and demanding. That's why we are pleased to be working with
"Through the project, we are contributing to the industrial transformation where Talga's operations will play a key role in electrification and contribute to a reduced footprint through sustainable, local production," says Malin Ljung Eiborn, Sustainability Director at
Initial groundworks have begun, in preparation of the construction of the plant in Luleå. In its first phase, the plant is expected to be able to produce 19,500 tonnes of anode material per year, which corresponds to approximately 16 GWh of battery capacity.
