FREYR Battery Secures 28.5 GWh Offtake Agreement with Powin
10 Mai 2022 - 12:31PM
Business Wire
FREYR Battery (NYSE: FREY) (“FREYR”), a
developer of clean, next-generation battery cell production
capacity, and Powin LLC (“Powin”), a global leader in the design,
manufacturing, and integration of safe and scalable battery energy
storage solutions, have signed a conditional agreement for Powin to
offtake battery cells produced by FREYR for energy storage system
applications, subject to the terms and conditions of the
agreement.
Highlights
- FREYR to deliver 28.5 GWh of battery cells to Powin from 2024
through 2030. The cells will originally be supplied from FREYR’s
combined Gigafactory 1 & 2 in Mo i Rana, Norway, and will
subsequently be produced at FREYR’s planned future U.S.
Gigafactory.
- FREYR to manufacture and deliver market leading
cost-competitive made-in-USA lithium-ion battery cells with a low
CO2 footprint, to be integrated by Powin into battery energy
storage solutions for the North American market and beyond.
- Today’s agreement is another important commercial milestone for
FREYR on the path to establishing giga-scale manufacturing capacity
in Norway, the US and Finland backed by conditional customer
offtake agreements. The conditional offtake agreement with Powin
brings FREYR’s cumulative offtake volumes to 78.8 GWh, representing
more than 67% of the projected nameplate capacity of FREYR’s
planned combined Gigafactory 1 & 2 at Mo i Rana and more than
90% of targeted production under current ramp-up and operational
efficiency assumptions.
“We are delighted to announce today’s agreement and our new
commercial relationship with Powin,” said Tom Jensen, FREYR’s Chief
Executive Officer. “FREYR aspires to partner with industry
innovators such as Powin to accelerate the transition to clean,
reliable energy solutions. Our team is looking forward to deep
collaboration with the talented people at Powin to deliver
decarbonized, next-generation battery storage products that will
ultimately be made in the US.”
Geoff Brown, CEO of Powin, said, “Our ability to manage every
step of our supply chain from battery sourcing to the onsite
installation, means we can backstop our commitments to customers.
Our landmark agreement with FREYR to source 28.5 GWh of battery
energy storage cells underscores our commitment to diversify and
secure our supply chain for our customers. We are particularly
excited to support FREYR’s plans to open a Gigafactory in the US
and their efforts to source raw materials locally to their
facilities to ensure the lowest possible carbon footprint.”
