It was widely reported yesterday that Tata had identified a site in Somerset to build a battery factory, with the potential to create 9000 jobs, and an official announcement was expected imminently.
The firm has yet to officially confirm whether the factory will be sited at Bridgewater in Somerset – a location historically linked with battery factory plans from various automotive manufacturers including Tesla, Rivian and JLR itself. Tata also plans to “maximise its renewable energy mix” at the battery factory, ultimately targeting 100%"clean" power. A core component of its sustainability ambitions will be the recycling of batteries in-house, aiming to create a “truly circular economy ecosystem” by recovering raw materials for reuse in new batteries.
