Altech Chemicals (ASX: ATC) has commenced a pre-feasibility study (PFS) for the construction of a battery materials high purity alumina (HPA) coating plant in Saxony, Germany.
The company announced plans to launch the study last month, which will entail its 75% owned subsidiary Altech Industries Germany (AIG) assessing the commercial viability of building a plant on a 14,000-hectare site at the Schwarze Pumpe Industrial Park.
The plant’s capacity is based on a forecast that European lithium-ion battery plant production capacity will total about 500 Gigawatt hours per annum by 2025.
Using this prediction, European demand for anode graphite is estimated to reach about 500,000tpa when all of the planned lithium-ion battery plants achieve full production.
