La empresa Italvolt, de reciente creaci\u00f3n, quiere construir en Italia la primera \"gigaf\u00e1brica\" de c\u00e9lulas de bater\u00edas para coches el\u00e9ctricos. Se anuncia una capacidad inicial de 45 GWh, que m\u00e1s adelante podr\u00eda ampliarse a 70 GWh. Sin embargo, no se anunci\u00f3 el inicio previsto de la producci\u00f3n, entre otros puntos.<\/p>\n
++ Este art\u00edculo ha sido actualizado. Por favor, contin\u00fae leyendo a continuaci\u00f3n. ++<\/em><\/p>\n La similitud del nombre da una pista sobre la persona que impulsa la empresa: Detr\u00e1s de Italvolt est\u00e1 Lars Carlstrom, que anteriormente hab\u00eda fundado la empresa Britishvolt, que planea una f\u00e1brica de pilas en Blyth, Inglaterra<\/a>.<\/p>\n Se invertir\u00e1n unos 4.000 millones de euros en la f\u00e1brica ahora anunciada en Italia. Italvolt afirma que se espera que la f\u00e1brica d\u00e9 empleo a 4.000 personas y que la primera fase del proyecto deber\u00eda estar terminada en 2024. Sin embargo, a\u00fan no se ha determinado la ubicaci\u00f3n exacta de la f\u00e1brica. Lo \u00fanico seguro es que la f\u00e1brica se construir\u00e1 en Italia. \"Para la realizaci\u00f3n de un proyecto tan desafiante en t\u00e9rminos de tama\u00f1o y esfuerzo t\u00e9cnico, Lars Carlstrom ha decidido centrarse en Italia\", dice el comunicado.<\/p>\n A\u00fan no hay detalles sobre c\u00f3mo se financiar\u00e1 el proyecto ni cu\u00e1ndo comenzar\u00e1 la producci\u00f3n. Lo \u00fanico que se sabe es que Comau, fabricante de robots industriales perteneciente al grupo Stellantis, ser\u00e1 proveedor de la f\u00e1brica. Teniendo en cuenta las f\u00e1bricas de autom\u00f3viles de Italia, Stellantis ser\u00eda tambi\u00e9n, por supuesto, un cliente obvio para los productos. Adem\u00e1s, no se menciona qu\u00e9 tipos de c\u00e9lulas quiere producir Italvolt.<\/p>\n La propia f\u00e1brica ser\u00e1 dise\u00f1ada por el departamento de arquitectura de Pininfarina. Sin embargo, no hay anuncios concretos m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de eso. S\u00f3lo se describe como una \"instalaci\u00f3n industrial inteligente y responsable\" que reflejar\u00e1 el fuerte enfoque de Pininfarina en el impacto medioambiental y social.<\/p>\n \"Creo firmemente que nuestro equipo de ingenieros y t\u00e9cnicos altamente cualificados puede construir la planta de producci\u00f3n de bater\u00edas m\u00e1s respetuosa con el medio ambiente, no s\u00f3lo de Europa, sino del mundo\", afirma el fundador Carlstrom en el comunicado. \"Nuestro objetivo es asegurar el futuro de la industria del autom\u00f3vil y garantizar que la cadena de suministro sea lo m\u00e1s respetuosa posible con el medio ambiente de principio a fin\".<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" La empresa Italvolt, de reciente creaci\u00f3n, quiere construir en Italia la primera \"gigaf\u00e1brica\" de c\u00e9lulas de bater\u00edas para coches el\u00e9ctricos.

Italvolt is taking over a former Olivetti site for its factory, which is now an abandoned industrial area of about one million square metres.<\/p>\n Olivetti is now part of the Telecom Italia Group, but was once one of the most important companies in the field of electronics and typewriters. Today, Olivetti produces printers, cash register systems and 3D printers, among other things. The factory in Scarmagno was built between 1962 and 1964. After several expansions and the crisis at Olivetti, production and use of the plant increasingly declined.<\/p>\n Italvolt cited the support of the Italian government and local authorities in this regard, but, as when it announced the plans, gave no details of funding. “We have not entered into any public funding of Italvolt,” said founder Lars Carlstrorm. “We are independent and transparent, and there will be a discussion about public funds at some point. The support of the Piedmont Region, local administrations and trade associations has been beyond our expectations, the intense and fruitful collaboration of the last eight months has been decisive.”<\/p>\n Carlstrom also cites the “intense and fruitful cooperation” of the past eight months. Clearly, the location issue was not as open as Italvolt had previously presented. The reasons Italvolt gives for the location are similar to those given by Olivetti in the 1960s: The good motorway access and rail links with Ivrea, Milan and Turin. “We explored sites in the south of Italy, but Ivrea works more efficiently for us to distribute to areas across Europe,” Carlstrom says. “There was a reason that Olivetti established the factory there, and it has all the electrical utilities and infrastructure it needs in the region.”<\/p>\n Italvolt has now signed the purchase contract for the land on which it plans to build its planned 45 GWh factory for EV battery cells. As mentioned above, the plot of land with an area of about 100 hectares is located in the municipality of Scarmagno in the north-western Italian region of Piedmont. 30 hectares are to be used for the construction of the plant and two hectares for the establishment of an R&D centre. The next step for Italvolt is to obtain building permits by early 2022 so that work can begin in the second half of 2022.<\/p>\n For the planned 45 GWh factory for electric car battery cells, Italvolt has now commissioned ABB with the project planning. In addition, joint research is to be conducted into how automation, electrification and digitalisation solutions can accelerate the production processes for battery manufacturing.<\/p>\n “Italvolt has the objective of gathering industrial excellences in each area of our business and we are glad to announce this partnership agreement with ABB, one of the foremost names in the global industry,” said Lars Carlstrom, CEO and founder of Italvolt. “ABB’s state of art technology will help us in ensuring the sustainability of our production plant as well as enable efficient, reliable, and cost-effective production.”<\/p>\n reuters.com<\/a>,\u00a0italvolt.com<\/a> (in Italian),\u00a0forbes.com<\/a> (update), italvolt.com<\/a> (update II), prnewswire.com<\/a> (update II), prnewswire.com<\/a>(update III)<\/p>\n"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149592"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149592\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":229923,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149592\/revisions\/229923"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/149567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149592"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Update 19 February 2021<\/strong><\/h3>\n
