To enable this, significant changes were made to the plant. A battery assembly shop has been introduced alongside upgrades to the General Assembly area. These changes have not only improved energy efficiency and productivity but have also resulted in a 60% reduction in the footprint of the plant. Our entire plant, now at 118,000m2, is similar in size to the previous bodyshop alone. Other improvements include a new test track and a new parts distribution warehouse - due to be fully operational in early 2024.
The transformation of Ellesmere Port forms part of Stellantis' plan to halve its carbon footprint by 2030 (based on 2021 data) as committed to in the Dare Forward 2030 plan, and to be carbon net zero globally by 2038. Sustainability improvements such as introducing a more energy-efficient '4-wet' paint application process contribute towards this goal. The group is also working towards running the plant on solar and wind power as well as connecting to the HyNet North West Hydrogen Pipeline.We're excited about the progress we're making towards a more sustainable future.
