In an innovative UK technology collaboration, Volklec is working with UKBIC, the UK Battery Industrialization Center and national manufacturing development scale-up facility, which also provides skills for the growing EV battery sector.
Volklec, working with UKBIC, will develop batteries to meet the attribute requirements of the UK automotive market, in particular the diverse array of small volume and niche vehicle manufacturers. Volklec's product development and rapid route to scale-up provides a critical component in the roadmap to giga-scale production. The collaboration will directly create jobs in the West Midlands and contribute directly to building world-class battery R&D, process and manufacturing capability in the UK.
“Volklec has been many months and significant investment in the making, established to help the UK's decarbonisation drive” said Imran Khatri, Volklec Founder. “As a proud investment in the UK, our initial focus is on the automotive industry, providing security of supply to the sector, then we intend to look at the broader electrification markets as well.”
