BorgWarner's gigafactory in Darmstadt, established after the acquisition of former Akasol, is now among Europe's leading battery production facilities. The plant operates with advanced automation, employing over 850 workers dedicated to manufacturing battery modules, packs, and management systems. Dominating the e-bus sector, BorgWarner's battery technology uses NMC chemistry and has produced 5 GWh of packs for commercial vehicles. With the enhancement of production lines, future capacity could reach 5.4 GWh by 2025, reflecting the growing demand for electric mobility solutions.
According to the American group, one in 5 e-buses in Europe and the U.S. mounts BorgWarner batteries.
BorgWarner's battery systems division has produced about 5 GWh of battery packs for commercial and industrial vehicles using NMC technology.
The site’s maximum capacity of 3.5 GWh is expected to significantly increase due to the finalization of a second highly automated production line.
The acquisition finalized in 2022 positioned BorgWarner as one of the best-equipped gigafactories in Europe, emphasizing electric mobility.
