For the good cause: Ready, set, mud! Northvolt Drei joined the Wattolümpiade Brunsbüttel– a very special edition of the Olympics, where sport meets mud and the Wadden Sea becomes the field of a wild competition. As team Gigawatt, we dived headfirst into the mud and splashed, slipped and slid our way through the soccer tournament. With teamwork and grit, we came fourth place – not bad for first-time Watthletes. We thank the team of the Wattolümpiade Brunsbüttel for this true local experience! For twenty years, they have been organizing this fun charity event to raise funds for the fight against cancer.

Info
Hej! Willkommen bei Northvolt in Deutschland. Mit unserem Hauptsitz in Hamburg sind alle Augen auf die Stadt Heide und die Region Dithmarschen in Schleswig-Holstein gerichtet, wo wir Northvolt Drei bauen wollen – eine der größten Batterie-Gigafabriken Europas. Angetrieben durch das nachhaltigste und kohlenstoffärmste Energienetz Deutschlands dank lokaler Windkraft ist es unser Ziel, Automobilkunden jedes Jahr mit 60 Gigawattstunden nachhaltiger, hochwertiger Batteriezellen zu versorgen. Northvolt wurde 2016 gegründet, um den Übergang in eine dekarbonisierte Zukunft durch den Aufbau einer nachhaltigen Batterieindustrie zu ermöglichen. Zu diesem Zweck entwickeln wir einen neuen Ansatz für die Batterieherstellung, der auf der Verpflichtung zu fossilfreier Energie, nachhaltiger Rohstoffbeschaffung und Recycling basiert. Heute ist Northvolt auf über 5.000 Mitarbeiter mit über 120 verschiedenen Nationalitäten angewachsen und hat sich Verträge im Wert von über 55 Milliarden US-Dollar von wichtigen Kunden gesichert, darunter BMW, Fluence, Scania, Volkswagen, Volvo und Polestar.

Some of our 3,000 future employees will be part of a very special unit: Northvolt’s own fire brigade! We have already begun recruiting the first firefighter trainees to ensure we have the team in place in time for the start of production. This week, the first batch of applicants underwent a fitness test as part of the selection process for the 19-month long training. The candidates completed several tough gym exercises, accomplished a swimming challenge and climbed a 30-meter turntable ladder. Our special thanks goes out to the local sports club PostSV Heide, the Dithmarscher Wasserwelt, and the fire brigade of Heide for supporting the test. We look forward to building our team of junior and experienced firefighters!

From weaving crafts to battery technology! It's fascinating to see that the Northvolt construction site was once part of a densely populated coastal strip where people already engaged in economic activities centuries ago. Recently, after 16 months of intensive work by multiple archaeological teams, the excavation work on our site came to an end. The project is unique for Schleswig-Holstein and covers an area of nine hectares. More than 16,000 remarkably well-preserved finds – some of them dating back 4,600 years – were documented, including loom weights and 197 warehouses. Photos 2-4 © ALSH

At Northvolt Drei, we experience many, many debuts. Last week, our VP Operations Daniel Elschner made his debut in the local media and gave an outlook on the challenge of leading future operations. He joined the German team in early July, after spending a year at Northvolt’s first gigafactory in Skellefteå, Sweden. With over 12 years at ZF and a wealth of international experience, including six years in China and the recent stint in Skellefteå, he brings extensive knowledge of production processes. Welcome, Daniel! Let’s build a greener future together!

On a cold and windy day in February 2023, our first container office was installed on the site near Heide for the first handful of employees. A year and a half later, it's time to move into our new temporary two-story construction office with a total of 120 workstations and a solar system on the roof. Great views of the construction site included.

Earlier this week, we applied for the permit to start piling of our first production block. Meanwhile, as you can see, leveling of the site is progressing, with up to 300 trucks using our newly-built temporary highway exit. Previously, we used the federal road which we can now leave to travelers enjoying their summer vacation on Schleswig-Holstein's North Sea coast. Safe travels and happy summer!

Together with Peter Tschentscher, First Mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, we officially opened our office hub in Hamburg! In typical "Schietwetter" (rainy, grey sky, moderate temperatures), we welcomed guests from business, politics, and society and met new friends from Hamburg startups such as 1KOMMA5°. Hamburg is not just the gateway to the world, but it also serves as our gateway to our future factory in Dithmarschen and the broader German market.

What a view! Pilot Thomas Dreymann and his Cessna visited us from the air and sent us this picture from May. The shot captures the progress of our groundwork since we started in March. You can also see parts of our energy ecosystem with lots of windmills and the West Coast line from North Frisia. Thanks Thomas for sharing!

Want to learn more about battery recycling at Northvolt? German tv already did. https://lnkd.in/eBy_kNUK
Curious about how battery recycling works? Check out this handy graphic to learn about Northvolt's battery recycling process ↓ At our in-house recycling facilities, we receive batteries at their end of life, as well as manufacturing waste, from which we recover valuable raw materials, in addition to copper, aluminium and plastics. By co-locating our recycling facilities alongside our gigafactories, we are able to immediately recirculate materials back into production – closing the loop on batteries.

While the German team opens the European Football Championship today, we opened our temporary highway exit together with Claus Ruhe Madsen, Minister of Economic Affairs, Transport, Employment, Technology and Tourism of the State of Schleswig-Holstein, the District Administrator of Dithmarschen Thorben Schütt, the Mayor of Norderwöhrden Kay Uwe Evers and Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes. For the premiere drive, the minister took a seat in a battery-electric truck from the Schröder Bauzentrum Gruppe. By providing direct access to the Northvolt construction site via the highway, we are able to reduce construction traffic on the federal road and increase traffic safety at the same time. Big thanks to all authorities involved.
