this commissioning giant factory It will be a shock as suggested at Navalmoral de la Mata It outlines a plan for the town and Extremadura but also. The future of the automobile industry in Spainbefore offering the opportunity to produce electric cars in factories that different companies distribute throughout the country. He referred to his future plan this Wednesday. Head of Government Pedro Sánchez in an appearance at the Congress of Deputies where he speaks about the electric vehicle Perte and stressedThere will be at least two gigafactories in Valencia and Extremadura” and stressed that these two battery power plants will be “the key to anchoring electric car production in our country now and in the future”.
Sánchez cited two projects to manufacture battery cells, backed by Envision and Acciona (in the case of Exremadura) and Volkswagen and Seat (in Valencia), as Perte’s main investments in the electric car, which closed the open call last Monday. To present the projects in April. According to the data given by the President at the tribune, 13 company groups were presented, which include the major manufacturers in the country and combine 487 projects that together will mobilize an investment of more than 12,000 million euros “Dmodernize and electrify the entire value chain, production lines and all supply chain“. Large battery power plants are the star projects of star Perte, which was loaded by the central government into the funds of the rescue plan. Aid exceeded 2 thousand 900 million.
He also stressed that 60% of the autonomous communities are located in Perte and, as he stressed, “it also means progress in territorial integrity”.
Perte in Extremadura
The main project of electric vehicle Perte in Extremadura finally comes from the hands of Acciona and Asian group Envision, which announced last Friday what will become the second Spanish battery factory for electric cars.A facility to occupy 200 hectares of the Expacio Navalmoral industrial estate in Navalmoral de la Mata. It is part of the Venergy+ project, which includes half a dozen companies and nine autonomous communities, and is planned for the capital project Extremadura.
The company cites today’s information about this gigafactory, which will initially have a scalable capacity of 10 GW and is expected to be expanded to 30 in successive stages (10 GW each); It is estimated that 3,000 jobs and more than 2,000 million investments, including Perte aid, will be reached by 2025.
The Envision project is linked to lithium reserves in the province of Cáceres, currently being considered for exploitation in Spain through the Lithium Iberia projects in the case of Cañaveral, and Extremadura New Energies (ENE) in the city’s mining project. caceres The first is pending, where the Junta de Extremadura rule on exploitation permits is in operation; As for the Cáceres mine, it needs to initiate procedures for the proposed new underground mine project to reduce the environmental and visual impact around the Sierra de la Mosca and to overcome the project reluctance at the town hall.
in central Peru
Since the electric vehicle Perte was announced a year ago, the central government turned its gaze to Extremadura, precisely because of the underground presence of lithium and, as President Pedro Sánchez stated at the time, that these projects will change the paradigm of rural areas. Previously, this view was also channeled from Europe, which is facing the challenge of reducing the auto industry’s carbon footprint and its high reliance on Asia. This put Extremadura (and its lithium) at the center, and indeed his candidacy was up to the last minute on the other Volkswagen gigafactory project, and he eventually stayed with Sagunto because the deadlines required by this project in terms of logistics and labor just didn’t match. another place.
The Future: Fast Forward project led by Volkswagen and Seat in Perte, There is also an Extremaduran stamp through projects being undertaken by Lithium Iberia and Phi4tech to exploit the Cañaveral lithium mine in Extremadura and to open a battery cell plant in Badajoz and another cathode plant at an as-yet unspecified location in Extremadura.. In this case, the holding includes 62 companies and also includes the gigafactory that Volkswagen will eventually build in Sagunto, which Extremadura has chosen.
In this case, companies advocating projects on the Extremaduran territory have always argued whether their projects were prior to Perte’s proposal and subject to arrival, even though it would facilitate access to the extraordinary financing of Perte’s rescue plan. Because the funds are pre-financed.
