On Thursday afternoon, it was confirmed that US battery company Lyten will acquire Northvolt’s factories in Skellefteå and Västerås, as well as its planned site in Heide, Germany.
This follows more than a year of turmoil for the company, including bankruptcy and the sale of its assets – initially looking bleak, but later attracting multiple bidders.
