* Shows ore from the mine
* Mark: "Probably within 12 month you can start construction. It would take about 2 years to finish building [...] So within 1 to 3 years until you are producing material in scale, with 3 years before you are fully developed." --- I understand that as start of production at low volume in 2028, and full volume in 2031.
* "Ultimately, who are your customers?" .. Mark: "Battery manufacturers." (*dhuuu*)
* Mark (paraphrasing): Chinese export restrictions will drive customers to us, in combination with green laws and support from EU regulations such as the battery passport.
Must say.. the timeline is a bit disappointing.. I was hoping it would be faster. Thx Sweden for making this as hard and long as possible I guess.. I bet China (with all its flaws) will take less than 3 years where we need 10 to 12. Europe doesn't stand a chance in the battery business if CRMA doesn't have the desired impact. This includes the Sami.

China has withdrawn its ambitions with the insolvency of NV. Job done.Courtesy to GVan:

Sweden has also built up a bulwark against the Chinese anode plant.
If I trust the statements of employees, I can assume that China sabotaged NV with their machines and the poor installation (NV's quality problems...).
In the general thread I posted another possibility with Bosh or Mercedes.

There will be a ramp-up. And one of the three identical production lines in the new facility is already in operation at Swerim.
He has become very careful. Only understandable.

So what will the EVA plant be used for? Continued piloting or could it produce anode for 3C markets?

If the EVA plant could be used to produce anode material for any markets at a profit, then Mark would certainly have dropped this possibility in one of the webinars. I can't remember any statement in this direction.

Finally some honesty about the ramp-up period. I've been saying this for 12 months that the timelines didn't add up.
Until now every message has been 18-24 months construction and implied full nameplate production immediately. It never made any sense.
Anyone want to venture a guess as to why the anode refinery wasn't included in the CRM strategic project application?

That's a good question. But Talga is right not to let us look at the cards. Don't forget, China is always breathing down our necks and is a constant threat. I can imagine that it will remain in place for the transition, but will then be relocated. So one less plant to finance. I seem to remember seeing three of these plants in an outline/map (?) of the factory and I think it stood somewhere that they will be identical to the one in the EVA.
Of course, the hope is that three will be built and because the demand will be so high, they will put the fourth one next to it.)
I suspect, that it could be used to produce what is envisaged as series production, as it is identical in construction.

I know you guys believe that since forever but I keep claiming that the EVA is not capable of producing industrial scale volumes. It proves the process as it is analogous and it produces volumes for testing and verification. But it does not provide the volume to the tune of 1/3rd of the factory. I cannot remember Talga claiming that ever. I think you invented this.

It is written somewhere. Either in one of the EVA announcements or in the plan for the factory.
I'm not making this up. A search here in the forum has so far been in vain.
I'm thinking about whether I should look for it or leave it at that. Over the years, we know how difficult it is to get practical details.
We have only learnt about many things through public documents from the municipality. It's also possible that it was there somewhere.
I'll see if I feel like looking for it.
Actually, it's the same as always - wait and see what happens. I've become a pro at waiting

I seem to have got the info from an interview article. I used to have a subscription to the local newspapers and have reproduced the content for you so that there are no copyright problems. I have found this reference so far:It is written somewhere. Either in one of the EVA announcements or in the plan for the factory.

"Just a little info from the articles, so again just in my words and without warranty.
The EVA oven was/is made in Germany. What's more interesting is that it's the same as the ones that were supposed to be installed in the factory. And 3 of them. From this you can now calculate the capacity of the current EVA.)"

Next catalyst is the Vittangi upgrade due in August I think. Don't forget shorters have to pay interest on the value of the shares they have borrowed. The SP was around $1.58 ish when the additional 2 million shorts began to be opened. So the spike to $1.19 means they lost quite a bit of money...

But that definitely explains why only I seem to remember it.

I point to the linked report: The Nordic Supply Potential of Critical Metals and Minerals for a Green Energy Transition They quote Talga from 2017, I bet the numbers would be a bit higher if the report was up to date ;)
