1/2022 Älykäs ja kestävä akkuarvoketju - Intelligent and sustainable battery value chain / Merinova

Vaasa’s goal is to create the world’s greenest battery ecosystem in Finland. The name
GigaVaasa means an industrial park environment of more than 350 ha intended for the battery
industry, the purpose of which is to provide a sustainably implemented industrial environment
for battery chemistry. The purpose of this is to attract battery industry operators committed
to the theme of sustainability to locate in the area. In addition to sustainability, the offered
industrial park environment aims to ensure companies’ competitiveness far into the future with
its infrastructure.

INVEST’S WORK IN THE GIGAVAASA AREA
The goal is to attract companies to the area, to attract them to GigaVaasa and to try to get
the companies to start the establishment process (plot reservation, EIA approval, etc.) During
the process, to support the companies in their profitability calculations so that the planned
industrial infrastructure of the GigaVaasa area is utilized as much as possible in order to achieve
competitiveness in a sustainable way.

DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNAL LOGISTICS IN THE GIGAVAASA AREA
The goal is to understand the processes of companies considering establishing themselves in
the region, so that the needs of internal logistics can be understood. The goal is to be able to
make further planning of the area through the understanding of the processes of the operators
in the area to create possible logistics services in the GigaVaasa area in a centralized manner,
so that the overall goal of an emission-free battery factory ecosystem is also realized in terms of
internal logistics.

SYNERGY BENEFITS OF INDUSTRIAL INFRA
The goal is to create the world’s greenest battery ecosystem, where the implementation of
industrial infrastructure is done in a unique way, so that as the region develops, a competitive
operating environment implemented in a sustainable way is created. New companies have come and are coming to the area. This project aims to ensure compatibility, synergies and
sustainable development among companies located in the area.

SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE
The goal is to find out the needs of industrial experts with companies considering locating in
the region and to support the ability of educational institutions in the region to prepare for the
development of training for different experts. As a result of the work, a competence/competence
map is created. Let’s find out the Nordic Battery Belt – possibilities for cooperation
