(01 Jul 2021, 8:34 am)Michael wrote Nissan has announced details of a new battery "gigafactory" that will enable its Sunderland car plant to massively increase production of electric vehicles.That's all because Britain does not have a licence to import EV batteries or component material. the licence was EU wide, yet another load off crap spouted by this regime .
The Japanese manufacturer said the £1bn battery plant, built in partnership with Chinese manufacturer Envision, will create 900 jobs at Nissan plus 750 at Envision - and an overall 6,200 when the impact on suppliers is included.
Britishvolt intends to build a plant on the former Blyth power station site in Northumberland promising 3,000 jobs and batteries for 300,000 vehicles a year.
