The new plant was projected to increase manufacturing capacity from 24 million cells to 130 million cells annually
The parent company, Taiwan Cement Corp., announced construction of the Canadian plant with much fanfare last year, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier David Eby attending and promising a combined $284.5 million in government funding.
The project consisted of replacing battery-manufacturer E-One Moli Energy Corp.’s old plant with a new one – increasing their manufacturing capacity from 24 million cells to 130 million cells a year. “It’s a very significant jump in terms of headcount,” E-One Moli executive vice-president Frank So told BIV in July. “And we will also be putting in a significant amount of automation to make this work.”
