The UK government is committed to continuing to invest in UK battery manufacturing. This strategy builds on our impressive track record of targeted government support, leading to a pipeline of investments through the battery ecosystem:
Automotive manufacturing, especially for electric cars and vans, is expected to make up the majority of demand for batteries. By 2030, for example, the UK’s automotive industry will need 90GWh of battery manufacturing capacity to supply electric vehicles built in this country.
In the wake of Brexit, the UK government has sought to develop bi-lateral science and technology agreements as part of a reimagined ‘Global Britain,’ with battery science providing a vehicle for collaboration.
The government will properly consider the national security risks associated with investment into the UK battery supply chain, during their manufacture, development, and the ongoing operation of assets.
The UK will be a world leader in sustainable design, manufacture, and use of batteries, underpinned by a thriving battery innovation ecosystem. The strategy was developed with the UK Battery Strategy Taskforce, drawing on the Call for Evidence [footnote 78] and engagement with businesses and stakeholders.
Britain's nascent battery industry has received a shot in the arm from the Government and foreign investors. The taxpayer-owned UK Infrastructure Bank has invested £25 million in Invinity Energy Systems, which is based in Scotland.
