7 2023年6月,,早上4:51浦项制铁未来M和通用汽车(GM)加入部队加强电池材料供应链在北美通过一个新的投资计划。这两家公司透露他们打算增加阴极活性物质的生产能力(CAM) Ultium凸轮,合资企业位于北美。此外,他们计划将额外的前体凸轮(pCAM)能力整合到他们的操作。该项目预计在2026年完成。支持通用汽车的电动汽车(EV)生产需求的飙升,合资企业和Ultium细胞进入大规模的凸轮供应的约束力的协议。这些投资主要集中在增加凸轮和提高供应链的生产能力在北美本地化pCAM处理。pCAM包括加工凸轮生产所需原材料,代表电池的成本的很大一部分。目前,凸轮和pCAM处理主要是集中在亚洲。浦项制铁未来M Ultium凸轮与通用汽车合作,建立一个全球性的汽车制造商,在2022年7月。合资企业正积极构建CAM植物,2024年完成它的目标。 By expanding its global mass production base in South Korea to key EV markets such as North America, China, and Europe, POSCO Future M aims to secure a substantial CAM production capacity in North America. GM is executing plans to install 1 million units of annual EV capacity in North America by 2025, supported by four U.S. battery cell joint venture plants with a combined capacity of 160GWh. The Ultium CAM joint venture will contribute to the production of approximately 360,000 Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Buick, and BrightDrop vehicles annually in North America between 2025 and 2030. Doug Parks, GM's Executive Vice President of Global Product Development, Purchasing and Supply Chain, expressed the significance of increasing CAM production capacity and incorporating pCAM into the joint venture. He emphasized the commitment to building a secure and sustainable supply chain in North America to meet the rapidly growing EV production needs of GM. The company has been working to establish battery cell production in the U.S. and is actively involved in the entire battery supply chain, including raw material recovery. This pursuit of vertical integration aims to drive increased investment and job creation across North America. Kim Joon-Hyung, President of POSCO Future M, acknowledged the flourishing EV battery materials market in North America and emphasized the joint venture's proactive decision to expand CAM production and introduce pCAM production in the region. Supported by GM's expanding partnership, POSCO Future M is leveraging its advanced technology and experience to play a vital role in the eco-friendly mobility market.
