Last month, Northvolt summarily rejected the headhunter\u2019s scheme and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States following failure to attract new funding from investors, including Volkswagen and Goldman Sachs. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collapse of Northvolt highlights the difficulties European battery startups will face struggling with Chinese manufacturers that produce 85 per cent of battery cell output worldwide, according to the International Energy Agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Since 2016, the company, which has a motto of “make oil history,” was able to raise over USD 10 billion. Northvolt managed to produce and sell batteries but failed to scale up production and manufacture high quality materials in high volumes, despite shrinking its operations and cutting jobs in the recent months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In June, BMW scrapped a contract worth 2 billion euros (USD 2.1 billion) because of supply problems, which represented a major blow. Troubles for Europe\u2019s wider <a href=\"https:\/\/theelectricityhub.com\/?s=electric+vehicle\">EV <\/a>ambitions: Northvolt now wants USD 1 – USD 1.2 billion to restructure by March 2024. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But European automakers have invested billions in turning away from internal combustion engines to EVs, and demand hasn’t risen as quickly as hoped. \u201cThe root cause is that they simply cannot meet customer supply demand,\u201d said Andy Palmer, founder of Palmer Automotive, using the term a \u2018management issue.\u2019 \u201cWe are, also, ten years behind the West in batteries,\u201d he added, \u201cthe Chinese are technologically 10 years ahead.\u201d That\u2019s a fact.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most importantly, the crisis brings to light the challenge of industrialising battery production, a highly technical process, and raises doubts about Europe’s ability to compete. This year, at least eight EV <a href=\"https:\/\/theelectricityhub.com\/?s=battery\">battery<\/a> projects in Europe have been delayed or abandoned, including China\u2019s Svolt and Stellantis-led joint venture ACC. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Benchmark Minerals reports that Europe\u2019s projected battery capacity for 2030 has dropped by 176 gigawatt-hours in 2024\u2014a loss nearly equivalent to the continent\u2019s current installed capacity. As European startups falter, the gap between Europe and its Chinese rivals continues to widen, jeopardising the continent’s EV future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.inupdriverspro.com\/cf\/r\/642fbe89324b7a00196525f6?click_id=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw&cpc=%7bcpc%7d&site_id=1175951&site=zeemedia-wionews&site_domain=wionews.com&thumbnail=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.taboola.com%2Flibtrc%2Fstatic%2Fthumbnails%2Fbbd3ea2a3deb46e5998cba5a80cf3182.jpg&campaign_id=24465284&campaign_item_id=3680488654&visit_id=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw&title=Most+Computer+Owners+Don%27t+Know+This.+Do+It+Today%21&utm_source=Taboola&tbid=1527999&tblci=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw#tblciGiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.inupdriverspro.com\/cf\/r\/642fbe89324b7a00196525f6?click_id=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw&cpc=%7bcpc%7d&site_id=1175951&site=zeemedia-wionews&site_domain=wionews.com&thumbnail=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.taboola.com%2Flibtrc%2Fstatic%2Fthumbnails%2Fbbd3ea2a3deb46e5998cba5a80cf3182.jpg&campaign_id=24465284&campaign_item_id=3680488654&visit_id=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw&title=Most+Computer+Owners+Don%27t+Know+This.+Do+It+Today%21&utm_source=Taboola&tbid=1527999&tblci=GiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw#tblciGiA2eqa8Tqkn7QMF6sCj3rmI-nkLX9V5A57xBDvSIpBUbSC_oV0oxpLEiIC5q_MTMI_jRw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><br><br><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sweden\u2019s ambitions to have a strong electric vehicle (EV) battery industry are overshadowed by the financial collapse of battery maker Northvolt.
