REACT-EU project

The aim of the REACT-EU project is to develop future technical competences and build a supply chain through a public-private partnership through battery pack/system development, testing and simulation and assembly/manufacturing activities.

Innovative battery technology is indispensable for realizing and accelerating the energy transition and greening. Due to the increasing electrification of transport, the use of batteries will increase sharply now and in the coming years, with the focus so far mainly on improving the functionality of the battery. In the transition to sustainable energy (solar and wind), batteries are also an increasingly important link in finding the balance between the generation and use of sustainable energy.

The essential role that batteries play in this transition, in combination with the critical materials required for the production and operation of these batteries, require an integrated and strategic approach.
 

Project content

In concrete terms, the accumulated knowledge will result in improved battery packs and pilot assembly lines in preparation for serial battery production in 2023. This project will thereby serve as a foundation for developing the broader battery ecosystem of the Battery Competence Center, with the partners seeing that several projects will be necessary. to build up a broad set of competencies. The REACT-EU project will serve as a basis for building parts of the required competences.

This React-EU project is made possible in part by the European Fund for Regional Development and the province of North Brabant in the context of OPZuid.
