Battery factory

Scania´s battery production is a new unit but we have already built a strong team and are helping each other and continuously improving our cross-functional working methods to secure our processes. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of building a brand new factory and build competence in a new technology area that is very important for a more sustainable future in the transport industry.

Step into our highly automated battery production!

Our team

In battery production, we currently have a line for the serial production of battery packs and modules, two prototype lines for batteries, and a line for the production of VCB cables. We are in the middle of a phase where we train and build competence to manufacture battery packs, modules, and cabling for tomorrow's e-mobility products.

We are a growing organisation with both a production unit, which produces battery packs of today's generation, as well as a project organisation, which prepares for future volumes and new generation battery packs. The entire organisation is imbued with team spirit. We strive to have fun and develop working methods and processes as well as ourselves and each other.
