To enable the electric vehicle market to continue to grow, the production of batteries needs to accelerate to meet the demand. Robert was delighted to speak to Peter Carlsson, CEO of Northvolt, to find out how this company that only began in 2017 are transforming the way batteries are made.
Northvolt's mission is to both create the world's greenest battery and then also to be able to mass produce this and establish one of Europe's largest battery factories. Building batteries isn't easy and Peter explains how looking at the location and availability of energy led them to Sweden and why reducing the carbon footprint of the battery manufacturing process is as important as making the batteries cost effective. What Northvolt are doing in terms of battery production is groundbreaking and we can't wait to be able to visit their factory for a future episode!

Instant like for not being about another car or having a 5 minute intro. This is what FC content should be, everyone else does the car stuff.
I enjoyed learning about Northvolt's approach to where and how to recycle and manufacture battery cells for transportation and grid balancing. This is such very important work. Congratulations and thanks to them.
Batteries that last 10 years... - its nothing - If the battery plant runs on nuclear - then we are talking, - but solar, wind & geo are a joke.
@@brentgreeff1115 My house is running fine on solar. What's your gripe with solar?
Welcome back to Europe Peter, I wish you success in your mission.
dead company 😂😂😂😂 Europe can't compete with Asia's technology and production facilities
Re Robin saying 6% increase in battery density a year over 10 years that is 60% increase. Due to 'compounding' it is more like 79%.
Great interview. I wish Peter the best luck in this project. So important for the future of the planet.
It’s a shame I can only upvote this esipode once! Fantastically insightful. Thanks so much.
I've been waiting for this interview. One of my favorite UA-cam channels (supports the channel by being a patreon) makes an interesting interview with Peter Carlsson at Northvolt. The company that is a leader in Europe, if not the world. Their largest production facility is being built in my hometown, Skellefteå! Thanks Robert!
Wow good for you.
Shoutout to Skellefteå 😁😁 live in that city. Was super exited when them choosed our city 😁😁😁 GO NORTHVOLT 😁😁😁
dead company 😂😂😂😂 Europe can't compete with Asia's technology and production facilities
Seems like it 😂
Watching the time-lapse of Northvolt's battery facility construction in a heavilysnow covered landscape, it makes a complete mockery of British Rails 'wrong kind of snow/leaves on the lines'. Looking forward to Fully Charged eventually being able to visit Northvolt in person.
Velcome to Sweden!🇸🇪👍
Great country and nice people.
Velcome to Bankruptcy! 👍
As both a huge fan of Bobby and a british native employee of Northvolt in Skellefteå this video is brilliant.
Great interview, encourage anyone interested in joining the northvolt journey to apply.
Hope to see you back in the north of Sweden someday soon Bobby.
Excellent interview and Bobby let him talk!
And doesnt he love to talk 😅
@@Mr.Monta77 dang it bobby! let the man talk!
A fascinating insight to the technology and its benefits.
So lovely to see recycling in the mix from the start - well done Northvolt! Well done, Fully Charged! If you have been, thank you for reading! LOL
Sounds good. Go Northvolt!
One of the most fascinating and important videos from FC in a long time...
Excellent interview thanks folks - the only thing that lets it down is the quality of Robert’s audio - lots of room reverb, made more obvious by the fact that Peter’s audio quality was so good!
Having watched every episode of Fully Charged I have now finally bought a 2014 Nissan Leaf and ordered Givenergy battery storage, solar panels and a Zappy car charger. I have not quite stopped burning stuff but will burn a bit less stuff. Thanks Mr Llewelyn.
Wow. Quite the commitment. Hat's off to you!
Fantastic, this is the kind of investment and advancement I hope to see rolled out en mass over the coming years. Very interesting and excited to see how these types of projects progress
Great video and very reassuring to know this stuff is going on! Excellent work! 👍
Mr. Carlson is smart person with good sense of humor.
And he is not Asperger's.
Quality infomercial. Great facilities, thoroughly enjoyed!
Will Northvolt cooperate with Advanced Metallurgical Group on Europe's first Lithium Hydroxide factory?
Would be a good idea. Also, when is Northvolt going public?
Unsure what is wrong with Roberts mic sounds like the one in front of him isn't functioning. Like the mic is somewhere else in the room.
Love to see in future Robert get there for a tour once the factory is in full operation. Fantastic.
Great program ,keep up the good work Robert
Very interesting interview, so hope you get Peter back on the channel soon!
30:02 compounding... 6% growth for 10 years is 79%
Indeed. Just grab the calculator people and enter 1.06 to the power of (enter number of years). 1.06^10 = 1.790
Robert, I knew you would get nailed for that one. And you fully deserve it.
That the growth rate is significant was the broader point for mere mortals.
Not only that, but if your battery is more energy dense, you can make it smaller and lighter and still get increased range.
Robert is such a great host. He can be both fun and childish as we knew him back in the old days with a scrap heap challenge, and like this interview, where he is dead serious, very interested in the topic, show he knows so much about it and ask great questions. I know Fully Charged is a team effort, but a front figure like Robert is awesome.
I disagree. Robert isn’t a very good host. I find it hard to accept this push for electric powered vehicles, it feels like government is forcing me to make this choice, if not now then eventually and this isn’t a choice most of the country can afford to make. Robert is part of that process for me. He always seems to glide over the high cost of buying a new electric car and if you decide to buy used then your taking on a used electric car that won’t last a long time (batteries will need to be replaced soon). It all cost so much money.
@@tawermeister99 I’m sorry that you feel that way, you really need to watch more Fully Charged episodes then. Robert is a fantastic presenter and ambassador of the electric community, he constantly talks about the importance of electric cars being more affordable, and does indeed challenge the industry on this very important point. The fact that you personally ‘find it hard’ that the industry is changing towards battery electric vehicles, has more to do with yourself than Robert and the Fully Charged show. Please remember that no politicians, governments or manufacturers are forced to go electric - if combustion engines could be engineered in a way that made them have zero emissions they would be a part of the future, the fact is that they can’t and therefore manufacturers make the switch to a technology that can. If you want to know more on the subject, I can only recommend to watch the Fully Charged Show on UA-cam and listen to their outstanding podcast as well, you will be amazed what the future brings and what is already in use :-)
@@tawermeister99 The reality of climate change is what is forcing us to make this choice. Governments are just trying to soften the blow by fixing things earlier. You and I might not have the money now but lots of people do and they are the spearhead. We should praise them.
@@timmurphy5541 Why is it always climate change we talk about and rarely air quality? My primary concern today is the exhaust fumes my 2yr old breathes when we walk into town. This is the immediate problem that we need to solve. CO2 levels are not harming me today and are a future concern.
@@tawermeister99 You are rigt that they still too expensive. But they will get cheaper than petrol/gas cars in 5 years or so, even the purchase price. When the first flat panel TV's came out, they were very expensive. But as more and more people bought them and they were produced in billions, the prices has dropped to nothing. You can buy a cheap 60" TV for & 500 or so today. The same will happen with the electric cars.
Because the used battery has a remaining use is there a buy back on your old battery when installing new batteries?
Cool interview. Thanks for having him on
Awesome company!
Bankrupt company!
The Swedish dialect is strong in this one 😉
All jokes aside a very interesting video
I knew it would come up 😂
Hello,
So at 16:50...what we really need is a return of the tamagochi toy, but for your battery..🤨
Cordialement,
Great description
And as an educational toy/simulator/engine / model for the future of all of this.
Build up user-interface, mockups and presentations using SideFX Houdini.
Great interview. Very cool time lapse from Doubter's Hill at the end.
You mentioned awareness of changing in a battery life and use, what is critical is making the public aware of these changes
Once this happens there will be a greater interesting move to a less carbon future.
One thing they have going for them, is this is a growing market, and competitive cells are going to be production constrained for a while.
Great report, very interesting journey. Thanks to you both...large volume battery manufacturing
So nothvolt is still talking about ovens Tesla as eliminating ovens and the foot print sound like they are still using the old wasteful production I feel I need more information about the cells
Great interview. Very impressive. You really should have Peter's name in the title or at least the discription.
2.5% of Sweden's electricity output will be this factory? That's mad
As he also mentioned, the state-owned mining company LKAB is building test plants with a new technology for making steel without carbon and fossil fuels. They predict that it can lower Swedens total emissions by 10% and Finlands by 7%. However they'll need a whole lot of electricity for this. More than 10% of Swedens current usage to be precise!
We will need a whole lot more wind turbines it seems..
I sit here watching what new things the world is doing around me. I would like to be younger again to be a part of this, so exciting. Here in the US we are so concerned about our feelings instead of participating in this technology . Well that is what the media tells us anyway. So busy with politics. What a waste. Oh well, I will do what I can. Thanks Fully Charged, great show.
Great episode. Still, as the title says, I wanted to go inside Northvolt.
fascinating stuff
Has that pair of shoes always been in Robert's background ? it reminds me of the show 'People like us'. Also good luck to northvolt, lets hope they can lower electric vehicle prices without compromising battery life.
If I remember correctly, he made them himself in an earlier career.
@@davidhumphries3614 That is correct.
Batteries are not the reason for expensive cars. It's a general price hike. New-old technology hype.
can anyone tell me what video conferencing solution is being used for this interview? It looks like a very interesting solution
Smart move. I wonder when they go public.
Me too.
So will Robert be spending New Year's Eve up in the Swedish Arctic Circle? Just waiting for that first battery.
Awesome! Great interview
Thanks for shining some light on how polluting and energy intensive making batteries is, it's usually glossed over and made to look like a clean and green business. Also, it would be nice to see companies repurpose existing factory sites rather than clearing more land for these huge factories.
I agree there is a lot of energy used to make batteries, (or anything) but overall this is still more efficient than other manufacturing methods. Also you are assuming that an existing factory site is suitable for this business. As Tesla found at their Fremont factory, there are a lot of constraints with existing layout and for any future expansion.
What a great factory 👍🏻
I work quite closely with Corvus energy through my line of work, on the hybrid ferry on the Isle of Wight, we had battery telemetry installed they call theirs “lighthouse” it’s amazing how much useful data can be clawed together to make sure we’re running things right!
Northern Scandinavia is fantastic!
brilliant
very interesting video! Do you have any plans to cover Cornish Lithium?
Lithium in Cornwall ? Do tell.
@@grahamstevenson1740 It's quite interesting, going back to the old tin/copper mining days they discovered springs loaded with lithium salts. The plan is to dig trial bore holes in these same locations and look into the viability of refining the lithium compounds from the dissolved salts.
@@deathruddlesdeathruddles5438 yes I have seen bits on this but very little information seems available.
@@keithware5314 I've seen their promotional videos. I think it would make a great onsite fully charged vid!
@@deathruddlesdeathruddles5438 Yes that would be a good idea. Also a mention of the battery giga factory to be built in Northumberland.
, a very interesting interview of Peter Carlsson, CEO of Northvolt.
Looking forward to the Fully Show coming to Australia in October 2022 in Sydney. What is venue you holding it, Olympic Park at Homebush.
Well, it feels like a race to the southpole considering that VW is running with Northvolt now and also deep in QuantumScape for solid state battery which want to build a german plant for the VW supply chain.
And that shall become available in 2025 with a twice as high density and faster charging speed at lower costs per kWh. That would have a huge impact.
I am curious how much money this gigafactory got from EU as subsidy?!
Interesting and hopeful.
Anyone here after the bankruptcy?
Panasonicに追い風🎉
Thank you!
Do you remember when a 256K disk drive weighed approximately 5 lbs and was about 14 inches in diameter? That could (maybe) represent the capacity of battery storage in the future.
@Paul Denney Amazing how data grows to fill the available space.
I used one that was that size but had 1 mByte of storage, & the fixed drive had ~2x that!
Battery density will probably double during the next 15 years.
@Paul Denney A well payed job? They cost £2000 If I remember correctly. Poor ass me only had floppies in my XT!
My intent in posting that was to show how technology changes when there is the research funding necessary. I have no doubts that battery storage capacity per unit of size/weight is going to increase greatly over the next years, perhaps exponentially. The weight of lithium batteries per watt hr. has now reached the point where they are successfully powering aircraft and can last for 20 yrs. Big change from lead acid.
@@phillip1115 Talk of 'exponential' improvements in Li-ion battery energy density is daft for this moderately mature technology. There's talk of 500Wh/kg (re 300-350Wh/kg currently) being possible but it's largely down to materials issues. A theoretical upper limit of 600Wh/kg in the 'perfect Li-ion battery' is accepted by most researchers.
For example, the aluminium and copper foils which form the electrodes in current production is 10 microns thick. Reducing the thickness would enable higher energy density without increasing losses from electrical resistance hugely but the material handling equipment used in production destroys thinner foils !
Robert! As Victor Meldrew would say “I don’t believe it!” You didn’t finish with your closing line, “If you have been thanks for listening.”
Very interesting - thank you. I have just bought my first EV and I have not come across any definitive information on how best to maintain the battery for maximum life! Some suggest regular discharge/recharge cycles. Some say charge to 80% each time, some say it doesn't matter... so could that question please be answered by a manufacturer such as Northvolt. It was mentioned to keep plugging in, but to what state of charge? 100% all the time, or 80%? Good on them to work recycling into the process.
100 only if you have a long trip that needs it. For daily use 60-80%. Keeping the battery in 20-80 range should be pretty good.
Charge to maximum 85% to prevent tendrils forming
Are these gigafactories all backed by the same money/people? BritishVolt, ItalVolt, and now NorthVolt? There's this guy Lars Carlstrom who seems to pop up in connection with them all at some stage?
Yesterday on the news they talked about the difficulties getting the 10 000 workers needed to this (northern part of Sweden doesn't have so much unemployment .....but a half nice problem.....
What kind of workers are they looking for? Only engineerers?
@@poxer1 I don't know, but i guess then need both engineers and ordinary workers
@@poxer1 with so many people you’re probably looking at every kind of job needed to run such an operation. Engineers, managers but also janitors, cooks and probably a lot of jobs i cant even think of
Very informative, thank you.
To make steel carbon free (as they claim they are doing) will need 2x the energy needed in Sweden today...
So to go green you go 3x energy consumtion... sounds "tricky"
That's WHY need to always have the Long & Wide view in planning & infrastructure design decisions.
Nuclear & next-gen nuclear gives you that durable energy density to do all sorts of intense electro-chemicall & heat-dependant processes & proton beam medicines etc.
About 12 years ago I spoke with a representative of engineering for a big Chinese Photovoltaic company. Trade Expo & Conference in Montpelier.
She spoke excellent english & french.
I asked her about more efficient PV chemistry & very thin film :: plasma printable future PV technology. And how that relates to Thorium Molten Salt Reactor projects in China, because they had just been announced in press and discussed at Thorium Energy conferences.
She was very responsive, on the ball & clearly informed and engaged about the strategy and business choreography.
She said:
"Yes Of course (forwards)!!!
But, right now we have factories, processes and know how in place at work. But PV panels are little known, little used. Most people do not have them in livrs, on their roofs, towns, etc. We are signing contracts and selling product and LEARNING all the time. Each country & culture has its challenges.
The current relatively crude crystalline PV panels are not the most efficient. We KNOW that if course.
They use LOTS of electricity to make. But it's a pretty simple production line once it is up and running.
All the aluminum associated with mounting support structures and all across industry required lots of Electric Energy on demand 24/7
But IF you have that electricity, then you can do all of this, and boostrap to the next stage, to next technology.
We have to go through the present to get to the future!
This prrsent stage will take maybe 25 years.
By then we will know more, the paradigm will have changed enough to make it clear which combination of infrasrructure &;technology we need to use and improve.
By then we will likely have many optimisations but also the challenge of new large scale electrical engineering demands.
Electric Cars, metalurgy, electrochemistry, welding/manufacturing, offline and portable energy storage vs online.
She said we will need all of it.
Right now the PV companies are just using what is simple (cheap) easy to put out into the world.
In 25:years we will replace much of that with better tech & systems :; smarter systems.
Including next gen nuclear, offline storage and local systems as well as network energy plans.
Hi speed Railways included.
See the videos on Chinese hi speed rail construction.
Also recommend reading anything by Vaclav Smil
Just watched Munro Live Quantum Scape then great to see North Volt 👍🌎🙏👋👋👋thank you great to see so much progress. Thank you keep up the good work
Great video... @29:45... you mentioned 6% growth over 10 years being 60%... it's actually more like 79% assuming annual compounding... just use a normal financial calculator ...
Awesome 👍🏻
6% annual growth in energy density, when compounded annually over 10 years, provides an increase of 79%
Lucky to have visited this plant NorthVolt Ett
Just wow!
👍😎
12:55 2 folks walking over a snow covered field, following previous footsteps.
13:04 OK, 2 folks walking over a snow covered . . ROOF?
Thinks to self: "Thank God I am not the bloke who has to sweep THAT lot over the edge, so the roof doesn't fall in!"
I was wondering that. I thought there would be a pitch on the roofs to minimise the buildup of snow on them.
update on northvolt ?
Its no more
Like it or lump it we in Europe are a year or two behind China and South Korea on battery scale up and battery manufacturing. I always thought when Dyson said it was making a Car to just leave it and concentrate on battery production and recycling down to a fine art would have been such a better move. What happened they spent hundreds of millions to cancel the Car in the end. I do believe a breakthrough will happen and battery tech will jump. Can we have one of these factories in Scotland we run 110% renewable at times but very little storage outside Hydro to flatten the demand. A smelter completely hydro at Fort William was for sale 😉
Why is cycling a battery supposed to be energy intensive? Modern battery manufactures discharge batteries back into the grid normally (even small chinese manufactures that make battery packs out of cells do this nowadays). Am I missing something here?
At a guess, even with discharging into the grid, even with high round-trip efficiency, there's still a substantial energy cost in absolute terms at the scale of the production planned in terms of losses to heat and then the necessary cooling. Granted, the waste heat may be recoverable for other industrial processes on site, but concentrating and transferring that heat also has an energy cost.
The whole video sound is from the nortvolt mic 🎙, you completely forgot to insert the interviewer mic sound back when he talks. Please do it next time.
We did… it was just poor mic placement and we slapped Robert’s wrists for trying to produce valuable content in his own.
@@fullychargedshow an rightly so.
I was wandering about Roberts sound all the way.
Please do one on the OLA electric. They are creating the world's biggest electric 2 wheeler factory in India. They also recently released their first model.
Nice communication-app! Could anyone tell me what system it is? I’ve only tried Skype and zoom
OBS Studio probably
I don't understand why they've built the factory with a flat roof,the snow loading must be huge?
Snow= insulation!
@@markthomasson5077 yes it works well as insulation,but I was questioning the weight after heavy snowfalls.
It is a huge building, so in proportion the snow is not so much. Can you imagine how big a pitched roof would be! Much less to design for flat roof snow loading
@@markthomasson5077 being such a massive building is why I pointed out the potential snow load on such a huge area of roof,I'd imagine being that far north they could well measure snowfall in meters. I really don't know how they design roofs in regions like that,but flat seems to be the worst option,although I've no clue what would be a better option.
That is why one of the jobs of the building maintenance team is to clear the roof of snow, before it packs too deeply to be a danger. It is very common job for building maintenance during winter to send couple worker up to the roof with shovels and snow sledges to clear out the snow.
So good see a CEO getting excited about his product....not his profit.
I am beginning to like videos of this format over the car reviews, very informative. Car reviews have just become of introductory in nature and less of functionally critical in nature, I guess auto channels do better job.
Interesting video. Tesla seem to have taken away a lot of the energy intensive process with their new Cells, with dry cathode technology. But it is encouraging to think the people making batteries in Europe are doing it with some thought to making it as clean as possible.
AFAIK Tesla haven't mastered dry cathode coating yet. It might even not happen for many years in the future.
@@martingorbush2944 Considering the process involved, I'm not surprised that it's difficult.
Terrific! Too bad I cannot like this twice. This is Fully Charged video that BEV life-cycle cost and environmental impact doubters need to watch...
Great review, just a shame Britvolt will take over 3 years to start producing, the UK is terrible at private investment.
I want to invest in Northvolt!
It seems strange that a brand new plant has to use the ‘old’ technology of drying ovens and containing cobalt...
Yeah.. it's amazing they can get through this whole interview and they never even reference the advances that Tesla has at least partially demo'd, in making battery construction and supply far more efficient.. hell they really didn't mention Tesla once.. it's like every company is scared to even say their name because they know they don't stack up.. so just pretend like the leader in the market doesn't even exist. It's weird to watch. Especially from a guy who worked there.
@@airheart1are you a operator on these battery manufacturing?
Fantastic. The future is bright. We have no excuse about building in the U.K. 😜😜😜
BIG roof ... why no solar panels considering how long a day is up there ?
Maybe Northvolt will be the greenest company in the world.
Not to be a downer on a great episode, but it looks like there are two people near the edge of the factory roof with no edge protection or fall restraints!
Welcome to Sweden So Welcome are Realy Great Newa for those live Up North get work are future in industry Will be are Up North Future work is in way Build 🙏👏👍
quality of life is dire that far north LOL - try visiting in November or something - but I'm really happy they've invested in Skellefteå and are so mindful of the environmental challenges this industry poses
Quality of life is fantastic in the north. Beautiful nature wherever you go!
@@jonn3132 yes, very enjoyable for 3 months of the year, apart from the mosquitoes
@@davidlittle7182 Meh. Summer's to hot. The remaining part of the year is good though!
there are rumors that northvolt is talking to the Portuguese government for the creation of a battery factory in Portugal.
It's fantastic the development of EV vehicles and I look forward to buying one, one day. But the Charging infrastructure in the UK is a joke.
We need 200 times more battery factories than currently operating on planet Earth, to supply every passenger car and most trucks! This is a gigantic industry developing now but it is not only a question of scale. As they guy says, it has to be done cleverly, not to seed another environmental disaster.
2:55 - Europe - highest commitment to Paris accords - Name the countries that are actually following their commitments.... Total BS.
This should be titled "interview with..." rather than "inside....factory"
Interesting that northvolt factory will still be using wet slurry. Tesla 4680 cells will be dry battery electrode tech which negates the footprint and energy for those massive drying ovens and the time needed for drying.
