Messaggi Raccomandati:

Beh dicono che produrranno ICE fino al 2033, quindi ancora per 12 anni, mal che vada possono allungare la vita produttiva di alcune ICE, ma non ne presenteranno più a partire dal 2026, segno che stanno per terminare o hanno già terminato la progettazione di motori termici e ibridi, anche in previsione delle future norme euro 7.

 

In sostanza chi vorrà potrà ancora comprare un’Audi ICE nel 2033 e tenerla per svariati anni.

 

Ma nel 2033 le batterie allo stato solido saranno già una realtà consolidata, costeranno poco e a parità di capacità occuperanno meno spazio delle attuali.

The move marks an extension of the sports car manufacturer’s technological leadership role in the field of electric mobility. Porsche and joint venture partner Customcells today announced the launch of production of high-performance battery cells at the Weissach Development Centre.

  • Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board at Porsche, Winfried Kretschmann, Minister President of Baden-Württemberg, l-r, 2021, Porsche AG Oliver Blume and Winfried Kretschmann (f.l.t.r.)

    “The battery cell is the combustion chamber of the future. As a new Porsche subsidiary, the Cellforce Group will be instrumental in driving forward the research, development, production and sale of high-performance battery cells,” says Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board at Porsche. “This joint venture allows us to position ourselves at the forefront of global competition in developing the most powerful battery cell and make it the link between the unmistakable Porsche driving experience and sustainability. This is how we shape the future of the sports car.”

    On the political side, Winfried Kretschmann, Minister President of Baden-Württemberg, Thomas Bareiß, Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and Boris Palmer, Mayor of the City of Tübingen, accompanied the official start of the company foundation. On the part of the companies involved, Oliver Blume, CEO of Porsche AG, Michael Steiner, Porsche Board Member for Research and Development, as well as Leopold König and Torge Thönnessen, the managing directors of Customcells Itzehoe GmbH, were on site. The new venture, in which Porsche has a majority stake of 83.75 per cent, has its headquarters in Tübingen. The university town is also on the shortlist for the location of the battery factory, which is to be located in close proximity to the research and development center in Weissach as well as the headquarters of Porsche AG in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. The number of employees is expected to grow from the initial workforce of 13 provided jointly by both companies to up to 80 by 2025. The Federal Republic of Germany and the state of Baden-Württemberg are funding the project with around 60 million euros.

    “We founded Customcells with the aim of developing customer-specific battery cells for the most demanding of applications, and this is exactly what we can now realise together with Porsche. The goal for the planned production plant is to reach a minimum annual capacity of 100 MWh. This is equivalent to high-performance batteries for 1,000 vehicles,”  explains to Torge Thönnessen, CEO of Customcells. “We are not only contributing our expertise in cell technology and production into our partnership with Porsche, but also agility, innovative strength and individual problem-solving skills,” adds Leopold König, who is also the new company’s CEO

     

    Minister President Winfried Kretschmann says: “With the founding of Cellforce today, Porsche and Customcells are sending an important signal: electrification is one of the central pillars of the energy and transport transition and modern storage technology is a key technology of the future. Whoever masters storage technology secures prosperity and jobs. Baden-Württemberg brings together all essential parts of the value chain, from individual high-tech components and production technology for the manufacture of batteries to battery systems and recycling. We are working on expanding this further – inter alia in the strategy dialogue Automotive Industry BW.”

     

    Higher power density compared to current good series batteries

    The chemistry of the new high-performance cells relies on silicon as the anode material. With this material, it now seems possible to significantly boost the power density compared to current good series batteries. The battery can offer the same energy content with a smaller size. The new chemistry reduces the battery’s internal resistance. This allows it to absorb more energy during energy recuperation and at the same time it offers improved performance for fast charging. Another special feature of the Cellforce battery cell is the fact that it is better able to withstand high temperatures. These are all qualities that are highly valued in motorsport. In addition, use on the race track does not necessarily require the battery to function in sub-zero temperatures nor remain stable for years over many charging cycles – goals which have yet to be achieved with this new cell technology.

    The world-leading chemical company BASF has been chosen as a cell development partner for the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. As a part of the collaboration, BASF is exclusively providing high-energy HEDTM NCM cathode materials for high-performance cells that enable fast charging and high energy densities. At BASF’s manufacturing facilities for primary products of cathode materials in Harjavalta, Finland, and for cathode materials in Schwarzheide, Brandenburg, Germany, BASF will be able to produce battery materials with an industry-leading low carbon footprint from 2022.

     

    The road to the joint venture and the partners

    The idea for a manufacturing plant for high-performance battery cells came from an initiative of the P3 Group. The Stuttgart-based management consultancy developed the concept and submitted in 2019 a funding application with Customcells as part of the European IPCEI project EuBatIn (Important Project of Common European Interest – European Battery Innovation), which aims to build up a competitive European value chain for lithium ion batteries, based on innovative and sustainable technologies. From the automotive industry Porsche got involved as a project partner. This year P3 Group decided to maintain neutrality and independence in the market and not to be directly involved in the joint venture. P3 acts as a technology consultancy with a deep technical understanding in the field of battery cells and has concluded a long-term service contract with the Cellforce Group.

    The contracts between Porsche and Customcells were signed on 21 May 2021. The Managing Directors of the new Cellforce Group GmbH are Markus Gräf as Chief Operating Officer and Wolfgang Hüsken as Chief Financial Officer from Porsche, and Torge Thönnessen as Chief Technology Officer from Customcells.

    Customcells is one of the world’s leading companies in the development of special lithium-ion battery cells. At the company’s locations in Itzehoe (Schleswig-Holstein) and in Tübingen (Baden-Württemberg), Customcells develops and produces application-specific battery cells ranging from prototypes to small and medium series – made in Germany. Since it was founded in 2012, Customcells has acquired important know-how in the field of cell development with diverse materials (cathodes, anodes, separators, electrolytes) and coating technology. Customcells manufactures small series of special lithium-ion battery cells, for example for the aviation and shipping industries, based on agile manufacturing concepts and state-of-the-art research and production facilities.

Mladá Boleslav/ Prague, 24 June 2021 – ŠKODA AUTO will be steering successfully through the next decade with its new ‘NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030’, which lays out ambitious goals in the areas of internationalisation, electrification and digitalisation. The Czech car manufacturer aims to be one of the five best-selling brands in Europe by 2030, and the company plans to become the leading European brand in the growth regions of India, Russia and North Africa. In collaboration with political and business partners, as well as the Volkswagen Group, ŠKODA AUTO is also striving to develop its domestic market, the Czech Republic, into an electromobility hub in order to safeguard jobs and create new employment opportunities. Specific goals for sustainability and diversity are also firmly anchored in the new strategy. In implementing it, the focus will be on the two core principles of efficiency and simplicity.

ŠKODA AUTO CEO Thomas Schäfer explains, “With our new NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030, we are providing specific answers on how we will successfully steer ŠKODA AUTO through the transformation process and ensure that the company will be in an even stronger position in 2030 than it is today. The brand has incredible potential. We will be leveraging this in the coming years and setting ourselves ambitious goals; we aim to be one of the top five car manufacturers in Europe in terms of sales; we are setting out to become the leading European brand in the growth regions of India, Russia and North Africa, and we are developing our home market of the Czech Republic into an electromobility centre so that we can safeguard jobs and create new ones. ŠKODA is entering this exciting future from a position of strength, and I am looking forward to working with our team of over 43,000 Škodians worldwide and our social partner KOVO to take our company to the next level in the years ahead.”

The new corporate strategy ‘NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030’ builds on the successes of the previous Strategy 2025. The company has defined a new vision and mission for its path towards the future. The new vision is ‘We will help the world live smarter’, and the new mission is ‘Modern accessible mobility with everything you need and surprises you love.’ At the same time, ŠKODA AUTO is committed to its proven brand values of ‘simplifying‘, ‘human’ and ‘surprising’.

Three top priorities ‘EXPAND’, ‘EXPLORE’ and ‘ENGAGE’ point the way forward
The ‘NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030’ focuses on three priorities, which are summarised under the headings ‘EXPAND’, ‘EXPLORE’ and ‘ENGAGE’. The overarching goal of the ‘EXPAND’ priority is to develop ŠKODA into one of the five best-selling car brands in Europe. On the one hand, this will be achieved by further strengthening the brand’s position in the entry-level segments. With an entry-level price of less than 14,000 euros, the new FABIA is setting the pace. On the other hand, the product portfolio will be expanded to include at least three more all-electric models by 2030, which will be positioned below the ENYAQ iV, both in terms of price and size. ŠKODA AUTO is aiming for a share of fully electric models of 50-70% in Europe, depending on market developments.

Safeguarding the future in the domestic market: Czech Republic to become an electromobility hub
To ensure that both ŠKODA AUTO and its domestic market, the Czech Republic, emerge stronger from the transformation process, the company is working with partners to transform the country into an electromobility hub. Specifically, e-components or e-vehicles will be produced at all three of ŠKODA AUTO’s Czech plants in Mladá Boleslav, Kvasiny and Vrchlabí by 2030. Already, high-voltage traction batteries are being produced for the plug-in hybrid models SUPERB iV and OCTAVIA iV as well as for models of other Group brands. At the beginning of next year, the production of MEB battery systems will also be launched in Mladá Boleslav for the ENYAQ iV. In addition, the Czech carmaker is working with partners to establish a stable supplier structure for e-mobility.

On the way to becoming the leading European brand in India, Russia and North Africa
The ‘EXPLORE’ priority includes establishing ŠKODA as the leading European car manufacturer in the growth markets of India, Russia and North Africa by 2030. This will result in a global sales potential of 1.5 million units per year. The company is responsible for these regions within the Volkswagen Group. Production of the KUSHAQ – the first ŠKODA model to be launched on the Indian market under the INDIA 2.0 project – started just recently. In the medium term, there are also plans to offer the KUSHAQ in other emerging markets.

‘Simply Clever 2.0’: ŠKODA will remain functional even in the digital age
The third priority, ‘ENGAGE’, comprises specific goals for the areas of digital customer experience, sustainability, diversity, and education and training. Among other things, the Czech car manufacturer intends to become the benchmark for a Simply Clever User Experience. Every customer should be able to operate a ŠKODA or a ŠKODA service intuitively from the outset. One of the first lighthouse projects is the PowerPass, which makes charging an electric ŠKODA model straightforward and convenient. It will be available in over 30 markets and can be used at more than 210,000 charging points in Europe. At the same time, purchasing a ŠKODA will also become an even more enjoyable experience. For example, the company is expanding its virtual showroom concept and has set itself the goal of selling one in five ŠKODAs online as early as 2025. Customers in Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland and the Czech Republic are already taking advantage of this option today.

Environmental targets significantly tightened: reduction of fleet emissions by more than 50%
ŠKODA AUTO is intensifying its sustainability efforts and tightening its environmental targets. The company aims to reduce its fleet emissions by more than 50% compared to 2020 and will be manufacturing vehicles with net-zero carbon emissions at all Czech and Indian plants from 2030 onwards. Production in Vrchlabí has already been CO2-neutral since the end of last year. The NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030 also places even greater emphasis on the topic of diversity; by 2030, one in every four management positions will be held by a woman. For ŠKODA AUTO, diversity, inclusion and equality are integral components of a corporate culture characterised by openness and tolerance. Moreover, as part of the radical transformation process, the Czech car manufacturer is promoting the training and further education of its employees and will be investing almost 500 million euros between 2022 and 2030, with the primary goal of safeguarding jobs for the future.

Efficiency and simplicity as guiding principles to accomplish the strategic objectives
To achieve the goals of the ‘NEXT LEVEL – ŠKODA STRATEGY 2030’, the company is focusing on efficiency and simplicity – two strengths that have always characterised the Czech car manufacturer. The aim is to attain cost leadership among core European competitors, coupled with a sustainable return on sales of at least 8% as the target figure. At the same time, the company is consistently simplifying its processes, reducing bureaucracy and complexity in order to become even more agile. For example, by gradually electrifying the model range, the complexity of the offering is to be reduced by 40% in the medium term.

Winkelmann mi è sempre piaciuto come dirigente e da osservatore esterno mi permetto di dire che è una fortuna ed un piacere che sia tornato il Lamborghini.

Domenicali non mi ha mai convinto e lo vedevo fuori luogo, non so se perchè la stessa azienda non lo metteva nella "luce" giusta oppure se era proprio lui a dare l'impressione di non essere all'altezza di tale ruolo.
