Britishvolt bought by Australian firm Recharge Industries

Britishvolt bought by Australian firm Recharge Industries | Macroeconomics: UK economy, IB Economics | Scoop.it
Recharge Industries is buying Britishvolt, the start-up that collapsed in January.
Graham Watson's insight:

Bear with me, but an Australian firm, Recharge Industries, owned by a New York-based investment fund, Scale Facilitation, are buying the beleaguered UK battery company Britishvolt. However, whereas the start-up was originally intending to produce electric car batteries, it seems that they are going to produce batteries for energy storage and only then for high-end sports cars.

Britishvolt: UK battery start-up set to be bought by Australian firm

Britishvolt: UK battery start-up set to be bought by Australian firm | Macroeconomics: UK economy, IB Economics | Scoop.it
Recharge Industries is named preferred bidder for collapsed battery firm Britishvolt.
Graham Watson's insight:

So beleaguered electric car battery manufacturer Britishvolt has been bought be an Australian firm owned by a New York business. So much for Britain's global trade aspirations. 

 

But at least there's now some prospect of the Blyth gigafactory being built.
