We are pleased to present our report titled “Europe Runs on Polish Lithium-Ion Batteries: The Potential of the Battery Sector in Poland and the CEE Region”. This report was developed with substantial support from market leaders and stakeholders in Poland and Slovakia.
EMBS produces lithium batteries in Europe. We are a lithium-ion battery manufacturer who is looking forward to working with you. Contact us!
1. Recommendation Developing Competitiveness The lithium-ion battery industry is now responsible for 2% of the Polish annual export value. This is a datapoint which is often brought up by Polish stakeholders. This shows of course, how much of an economic factor this industry can become.
The factory began operating in autumn of 2020, with an annual production of 72,000 traction batteries in 2021. 80% of this production is for plug-in hybrid cars, while 20% is for electric cars. Mercedes-Benz Manufacturing Poland's Jawor factory is projected to produce over 100,000 units of batteries for PHEV drives and BEV vehicles.
Lithium-ion batteries, or Li-ion batteries, are a type of rechargeable battery that uses lithium ions to store and release energy. These batteries are commonly used in consumer electronics, such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets, as well as in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems.
The value of exports in the battery sector increased 38-fold over the last six years from around PLN 1 billion (EUR 0.21 billion) in 2017 to over PLN 38 billion (EUR 8.24 billion) in 2022. Poland is the leader of the lithium-ion battery supply chain in Europe and will maintain this position until at least 2027.
