Lithium power station factory in Portugal

The factory to be built in Sines, about 100 km (62 miles) south of Lisbon, will produce lithium batteries with a total annual capacity of 15 gigawatt hours, which is equivalent to about 187,000 batteries for EVs, mainly in the European market.CALB said its first factory in Europe would create 1,800 direct jobs, expecting it to represent more than 4% of Portugal’s GDP when the plant hits full capacity.
