The UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC), the UK’s national battery manufacturing scale-up facility, has secured £36m in funding for the facility’s new flexible industrialisation line (FIL.)The new line will bridge the gap between UKBIC’s volume industrialisation line (VIL) and existing kilogram-scale demonstrator lines available elsewhere.Construction of the new line is set to get underway in September, with the equipment coming online during 2025.The line will provide battery developers with a cost-effective route to market, without having to take cell development outside of the UK.
