A spokesman for the ministry declined to say may participate in the name of the company, but added that German companies in Europe in the future of the two power battery group will play an important role. According to foreign media, the latest news on September 6, the German government said the ministry of economic affairs, are discussing a second European power battery production group, is expected to fall this year reached a preliminary agreement. German economy minister amel ( Peter Altmaier) In June this year, said he expected eventually there may be three major European car battery group. Europe brought together a number of world famous veteran car manufacturing giants, but in electric vehicles, automatic driving technology, emerging technologies, such as vehicle power battery appeared behind other European countries the status of the region, Europe is taking various unconventional means to catch up. Silicon chips, by contrast, the United States appeared tesla such industry leaders, lead the electric and automatic driving technological innovation, tesla Model 3 has become the attention of the highest ever electric vehicles. This project covers the battery raw materials acquisition, batteries and battery recycling, etc. According to foreign media reports, in the field of global automotive batteries, in east Asia, South Korea and Japan is clearly in the lead, emerged a large number of powerful battery manufacturers, such as the age of ningde, byd, panasonic, its Chinese photovoltaic cloud appLG hin high-tech chemical, samsung SDI, countries, etc. In April this year, Germany and France, have formed the first European multinational auto battery production group, participate in the enterprise including the only car giant French and German subsidiary opel and psa Peugeot Citroen group French battery maker Saft, etc. Germany and France, the government announced that the silicon chips will be the first battery cooperation project investment of 50 to 6 billion euros, of which 4 billion euros from the private sector, monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon is mainly European auto makers and battery makers. According to the project cooperation, France and Germany will be the first to build a pilot battery factories in France, heat storage technology to the future study in foreign countries in France and Germany respectively to build a car battery factory, each factory employs 1500 people. The above of the second car battery project involving nine countries, involving what specific countries, the future will be how to set up several factories, production scale, the information is unknown. According to foreign media reports, the common means of European countries and enterprises, the purpose of the car battery group is to mix, and the main competition power battery suppliers in Asia. Is known to all, is a traditional European car industry is quite developed area, with many world famous brands, but in terms of pure electric vehicles, the European automobile enterprises is considered the slow problem. Its photovoltaic cloud app also become the electric car market in China, the green building and building energy conservation is not only sales distance in the world the first, and the hundreds of electric car manufacturers and a number of lithium battery manufacturers. Sources said, in Europe the second car battery group of companies, including German auto makers BMW, basf ( German chemicals giant) Companies such as, BMZ group and Varta. Earlier on Friday before, a German media quoted the amel reported that Germany has principle agreement with other eight European countries, set up the second group production and recycling car batteries. Among them, the BMZ are a professional manufacturer of car battery. European behind in the field of car batteries, let Europe from all walks of life. According to the report, in the past few months, the European commission vice-president SaKeWei led a group of government and European manufacturers, development Banks and financial institutions in the consultations, ready to invest 100 billion euros, build lithium-ion battery industry chain in Europe, lay a foundation for Europe's future development of pure electric vehicles.
