The upcoming Tinci Materials facility in Morocco will produce 100,000 tons of Lithium hexafluorophosphate and electrolytes.
These manufactured materials are intended for the European market for electric vehicles, reported Afrik21 media outlet.
The Chinese company Tinci Materials earlier indicated its intention to move from the Czech Republic to Morocco, where it anticipates finding a more stable political environment.
The European Union (EU) will have banned the sale of internal combustion vehicles by 2035. Accordingly, Chinese battery producer Tinci Materials will focus its efforts in Morocco, from where it will export its lithium batteries.
Tinci’s affiliate in Singapore has allocated up to USD 280 million (2.7 billion MAD) to build its firm in Morocco.
The Chinese company’s investment was due to the large potential of Morocco’s natural resources, particularly in terms of cobalt and lithium. On a worldwide basis, these raw minerals are desired for decarbonization due to their great energy storage capability.
Tinci’s two new plants in Morocco and the United States will address the rising demand for battery components. Tinci’s Texas-based lithium battery electrolyte factory will have a 200,000-ton annual manufacturing capacity.
The company recorded an increasing demand for lithium battery materials, which doubled the business revenue last year.
93% of the total revenue came from the lithium battery material industry. Tinci’s net profit increased significantly as well, over 160% higher at about $USD 789.7 million.
