Whatever type of batteries this plant is intending build it will need to be more than just car batteries for the UK automotive industry if it is going create 3000 - 8000 jobs.The report quoting the CEO says the plant is crucial for UK automotive industry.I would think the UK automotive industry has other bigger issues to deal with at the moment.It's good news for NE - bad news for Wales following in from the ineos/ Ratcliffe decision to build inn France
It's a start up in competition with the big boys..... so excitement needs to be muted until it actually happens.
But good news for NE and (potentially) 1 reason to argue that Nissan may want to continue here
....( to counter the big arguments gathering on the other side of that see saw)
We need battery manufacturing in UK to cement any hope of a future automotive industry post 2030 when all new designs will be electric
Still waiting?
Step aside Bishop Auckland the Jewel in the crown is heading north.Pikeys to follow.superb news, gerrin
YupYep. It's coming.
I'll humour you - I've been working on this for a while, can't get prices for anything because no fucker knows what terms we'll be trading on*waits*
Seems strange, what with the impending demise of the UK car industry as foretold on here.
Hopefully you haven't been holding your breath. Been nowt so far. ☹Yep. It's coming.
This plant - if it happens - won't be churning out any product for 3 years possibly more .Maybe this will save nissan?
If cars have to all be electric and you have the gigaplant up the road which creates the required lithium batteries.
LinkBoris in Blyth now apparently
YawnYep. It's coming.
Possibly too big?
Offshore supply vessels maintenance and general supply and manufacture of wind turbines is the area the Pallion shipyard scheme and other ports in general are targeting. Obviously the wind turbines are used to power the battery factories and to charge the produced batteries, almost at 0% CO2 emissions. the NE will be the winner if we set up a world leading infrastructure in the NE.For those dreaming of new shipbuilding - forget it and switch on to high tech energy / grid / smart devices and electric transport
The twat should be in Brussels digging his country out the hole he has dugBoris in Blyth now apparently

yep, news wasn't meant to come out yet... someone needed some good newsBoris in Blyth now apparently
