Battery in Focus Expert Group welcomes leaders from all parts of the global supply chain industry to discuss the vision of developing a safe, efficient battery supply chain through an overarching approach to all aspects of sustainable logistics without compromising the environment or social needs.
The group has been created to identify what needs to be done to prepare for the ‘EV boom’ and its implications on lithium-ion and the supply chain that surrounds it. It aims to define global standards that will allow a clear set of rules and regulations for this kind of logistics.
We are very pleased to continue with the Battery in Focus Expert Group meetings where you can share your insights and drive debates on the electric vehicle industry in 2021!
We believe that collaboration between OEMs, logistics service providers and battery manufacturers can implement an overall plan that allows the automotive supply chain to efficiently support battery movement and ensure a safe and cleaner way of doing it.
This took place at the AutomotiveEV Conference in UK on the 16th of November.
A lot of ground was covered throughout 2-hour-session and valuable insights deepened the discussion on:
Our aspiration is to develop overarching approach to Sustainable Supply Chain for EV batteries, including all aspects of it.
Drive standards in the supply chain of batteries - end to end - that will support supply chain efficiency yet not compromise the environment or social needs. Also, elevate the importance of supply chain in the 'new automotive landscape'. Collaborate with partners to find innovative, mutually beneficial solutions for all stakeholders and grounding for entry points into automotive associations such as CLEPA, SMMT, GALIA and others. Furthermore, conduct regular sessions to follow the market evolution and build collaboration.
Focusing on Lithium-ion batteries/plug-in hybrids. Knowing how to serve the new demands of OEMS, Tier suppliers, LSPs in place today and tomorrow. Also better understanding supply chain solutions in place today and how to to innovate for the future. Understanding the complexities around the battery supply chain (i.e. dangerous goods, certification). Moreover, developing cradle to cradle concepts (if possible to find sustainable solutions.
A growing panel of experts from Automotive Manufacturers (both OEM and Tier Suppliers), transport providers, law firms and battery specialists cover important focus points of the movement of batteries and cells, such as the global footprint of dangerous goods supply, packaging regulations and challenges with achieving an industry-wide standard.
