According to a report by Automotive News Canada, Vianode is in the “advanced stages in the site selection process for North America,” and that the plant will be within the “proximity of the U.S.-Canadian automotive cluster,” although the exact location won’t be made public for a couple of months.

Once Norway's Vianode launches production in North America, the deal will run through 2033. The new plant could be in the U.S. or Canada.

Vianode, an advanced battery materials company, Wednesday announced the signing of a long-term, multi-billion dollar supply agreement

The agreement “covers development of large-scale manufacturing capacity and supply of synthetic anode graphite towards 2033.”
