Powering up British battery manufacturing, a Camargue conversation.
Our latest Camargue conversation roundtable answered the question – what’s needed to power up British battery manufacturing?
In spring 2023, Camargue brought together a cross-section of experts from the battery supply chain to discuss how the UK can utilise its valuable resources to drive a thriving battery manufacturing sector.
The debate focused on five core themes: policy and industrial strategy; investment and finance; supply chain and materials; infrastructure and property; and skills and training.
While the UK faces competition from other nations also trying to charge up their battery manufacturing potential, our experts were cautiously optimistic about the outlook for battery manufacturing in the UK. We already have the technology, expertise, and entrepreneurship needed to grasp the opportunity, but greater leadership from government and a more holistic battery industrial strategy could strengthen UK Plc’s ambition to be a leader in battery manufacturing.
