Panasonic Energy Electric Vehicle Battery Plant
Panasonic Energy Co., Ltd.
Nissan North America
The facility was one of three of its kind when constructed. The plant produces lithium-ion batteries to power Nissan's zero-emission vehicles. It can produce 200,000 advanced technology batteries annually and sits adjacent to Nissan's vehicle assembly plant. The EV Battery Plant includes a cleanroom and dry room. The clean room environment is strictly controlled and minimizes environmental pollutants. Between entering the dehumidification units and leaving the heat recovery wheel, grains of moisture per pound are reduced from 132 to one in the dry room.
