It will be powered by 100% net zero carbon energy, aligning with the company’s global commitment to sustainability. The new state of the art facility will produce enough batteries to power 100,000 electric vehicles annually. It forms a central part of Sunderland’s £1bn EV 36Zero partnership, an electric vehicle hub supporting next generation EV production and accelerating the UK’s transition to net zero carbon mobility.
