Nouveau Monde’s European Branch mandate will be primarily to advance ongoing commercial engagement with our existing and future European-based customers for our battery anode and other advanced materials. It will also look to liaise with European governments, universities and research centres and local stakeholders to solidify our value proposition to the European lithium-ion battery supply chain. It will also evaluate potential site selection and engineering partners for an additional battery anode material plant, providing the rapidly expanding European market with an integrated, local and sustainable source of supply

Eric Desaulniers, president and CEO of Nouveau Monde said, “The decision to open an office in Europe was driven by intensified discussions that we have been having with a number of Europe-based potential clients. We have witnessed their realities change as they are pressed to secure the raw materials that go into their batteries. With the near-term surge in demand, driven by the EV and renewable energy revolution, these companies are in competition to source dependable, large-scale, sustainable, and ethically produced anode materials. Nouveau Monde has a lot to offer to the European lithium-ion battery material supply chain by becoming one of the most significant and sustainable sources of graphite outside of China and Africa.”

Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, recently forecast global lithium-ion battery megafactory capacity of 2,925 gigawatt hours by 2029, an increase of 480 per cent from 2019. In Europe alone, growth in capacity is estimated at 228%, with Europe representing close to 20 per cent of the world’s megafactory capacity by 2029
