The Swedish logistics company will handle transports for Northvolt Ett, a lithium-ion battery production site under construction in Skellefteå in northern Sweden.

Scanlog will, among others, increase its organisation in Gothenburg to manage the maritime part of the multi-year deal.

"We are of course extremely happy and proud to have been entrusted with handling Northvolt's international transport logistics, says. We have worked very intensively to develop a solution for Northvolt that is sustainable over time, and that is both cost-effective and reduces environmental impact," Mathias Wideroth, Scanlog's Founder and Board Chair, commented.

Large-scale manufacturing at Northvolt's facility is to commence this year. Annual capacity will ramp up to at least 32 GWh by 2024, with the potential to expand to 40 GWh in the future.
