Upcell TurnKey Solutions
Accelerating the Scale-Up of Battery Manufacturing Worldwide
What is Upcell Turnkey Solutions (UTKS)?
A strategic initiative to create consortia of best-in-class machine builders across regions (Europe, North America, Asia) to support the scalable development of gigafactories with full turnkey battery manufacturing solutions.
It aims to empower regional players to compete globally through a portfolio of battery manufacturing consortiums designed to accelerate industry scale-up.

⚔️ Competitive Environment

🧭 Advisory Role Only
UTKS provides strategic guidance and support — but holds no operational responsibility or management of the consortia.
💶 Public Funding Support
Projects may be eligible for financial backing through public entities like the European Commission and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

Beyond regional initiatives, it is essential to create a global turnkey solution capable of managing gigafactory-scale projects worldwide.
