Giant Battery Factory Could Be Built In Turkey

"A country with a rich manufacturing economy like Turkey should determine its strategy in domestic battery production," said Livingston, acting director for Climate and Advanced Technology at the Atlantic Council's Global Energy Center. David Livingston, acting director for Climate and Advanced Technology at the Global Energy Center of the Atlantic Council, said that Turkey's electric vehicle project is an important step in terms of the country's economy. "a country with a rich manufacturing economy like Turkey should determine its strategy in domestic battery production. The Chinese company CATL, one of the largest battery manufacturing and technology companies in the world, is studying Turkey for the establishment of a battery manufacturing plant." quoth. Livingston, the Anadolu Agency (AA) is the sponsor of global communication, hosted by the Atlantic Council and the European reconstruction and Development Bank held in Turkey, "renewable energy outlook Conference: Turkey, Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Western Balkans financing, investing, legal regulations and new technologies" in the program and answered the questions of AA correspondent. Turkey's car venture group, who demonstrated the strategic importance it attaches to Turkey's widespread use of electric vehicles Livingston, the project's emissions reduction as well as a very important step in terms of energy security, he said. "Turkey's domestic electric vehicle strategy is very important in terms of reducing the current account deficit," said Livingston, noting that Turkey has over $ 40 billion in annual energy imports, the largest amount of which is oil. Because instead of importing oil, both domestic and electric cars will be used, and fewer electric vehicles will be imported from outside in the future. I also think that Turkey will export this instrument to world markets." quoth. Turkey's target of "1 million electric vehicles by 2030" is achievable, Livingston said.: "According to the Shura Energy Transformation Center, 3 out of every 10 people in Turkey will use electric vehicles by 2030. It will, therefore, be necessary to address closely how 1 million charging stations can be installed in key transit corridors across the country during this time. A country with a rich manufacturing economy like Turkey should determine its strategy in domestic battery production. The Chinese company CATL, one of the largest battery manufacturing and technology companies in the world, is studying Turkey for the establishment of a battery manufacturing plant. At this point, some incentive mechanisms will be needed to attract investment." "A TRANSPARENT AND RELIABLE SUPPLY CHAIN MUST BE CREATED" Livingston stated that some basic mines would also become important again as part of battery production for electric vehicles and that Turkey could produce these mines itself. Livingston, these countries today, stressing that the world's major lithium producers as a step forward, "Turkey has some lithium, I know that graphite and uranium deposits but the main issue are not to produce in all these countries. It is important, battery production to feed the factory price transparency and reliability creating a chain of supply. " found the assessment.
