 <\/p>\n

Verkor, a designer and producer of low-carbon batteries for electric vehicles, and EDF announce the signing of a twelve-year Nuclear Power Allocation Contract (CAPN).<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a context of increasing its battery production in France, this contract represents a major milestone for Verkor and is part of its development strategy in support of sustainable, sovereign, low-carbon mobility. Under the contract, for a period of twelve years, Verkor will be allocated a share of EDF\u2019s operating nuclear fleet capacity, reaching 33 MW, with a cost and risk-sharing mechanism based on actual production volumes.<\/p>\n

The first deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2028.<\/p>\n

With this partnership agreement, Verkor secures a portion of its electricity needs over the long term, a key factor in ensuring predictability of its energy costs and safeguarding its future investments.<\/p>\n

The signing of this contract allows Verkor to access low-carbon electricity at a stable price over time. It will help reduce the carbon footprint of its production, a key criterion for automakers committed to the growth of electric mobility.<\/p>\n

Benoit Lemaignan, Chairman of the Management Board and Founder of Verkor, said:<\/strong> \u201cThis agreement for low-carbon electricity represents a crucial milestone for Verkor, but also for the development of a European battery industry. Through this partnership, we are equipping ourselves with the means to ensure the long-term industrial efficiency of our Gigafactory.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Marc Benayoun, Group Senior Executive Vice-President, Customers & Energy Services, added:<\/strong> \u201cThis nuclear production allocation contract perfectly illustrates our strategy: providing low-carbon, competitive electricity to support the energy transition. Together with Verkor, we are helping to build a competitive and sovereign European battery industry.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
