ABB SIGNS MOU WITH EVE ENERGY TO SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE GREENFIELD BATTERY MANUFACTURING GLOBALLY

ABB has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with EVE Energy, a global lithium battery cell manufacturer, to support the development of new, sustainable lithium battery factories in locations worldwide. The agreement, founded on EVE's ‘Global Manufacturing, Global Delivery, Global Cooperation’ capability system, aims to improve efficiency, meet project timelines, and enhance overall productivity and profitability, thereby addressing the evolving challenges and requirements in the lithium-ion battery manufacturing industry.

With EVE set to open new factories globally in the coming years, ABB will collaborate with its project teams for the design and construction and share its expertise in the greenfield battery manufacturing space. ABB will support EVE’s initiatives in line with its pillars for success: electrical, instrumentation, control and digital (EICD) integration, Adaptive Execution™, and efficient ongoing operations. According to the MoU, the two companies will also collaborate on research and development (R&D) and explore the supply of battery cells, modules and packs to ABB.

EVE has more than 23 years of experience in lithium battery innovation and an established presence in the Internet of Things (IoT) and energy sectors. The company’s product portfolio involves primary lithium batteries, small lithium-ion batteries, power batteries and energy storage batteries. EVE is currently building its first European plant in Hungary to supply the region’s automotive sector and has plans in place for other sites, expanding on its existing footprint in China and the US.

The global lithium-battery manufacturing industry is evolving in response to increasing clean energy demands. Alongside this growth, the industry faces several challenges, including improving quality while reducing off-spec material, enhancing throughput, managing cost pressures and decreasing battery prices, and ensuring safety and environmental responsibility. ABB’s Plant Optimization Methodology is designed to combat these challenges at project inception, helping to design, equip, and operationalize new plants for more efficient operations.

Covering the entire battery manufacturing value chain, from materials sourcing to production and recycling, ABB’s end-to-end solutions include ABB Ability™ Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) and ABB Ability™ Energy and Asset Manager, which provide comprehensive visibility and control over manufacturing processes and energy consumption. These tools will enable EVE to optimize production, reduce energy usage, and ensure the highest quality standards.
