Verkor is a French industrial company founded in 2020 that specializes in the production of low-carbon lithium-ion battery cells for electric mobility and energy storage applications. The company is headquartered in Grenoble and has developed its first Gigafactory in Bourbourg, near Dunkirk, which was officially inaugurated in December 2025 under the patronage of French President Emmanuel Macron. With an initial production capacity of 16 GWh per year, the facility represents a major step toward large-scale industrial battery manufacturing in Europe.
Verkor's core mission is to produce low-carbon batteries in Europe while contributing to industrial sovereignty and decarbonization. The company positions itself as a key player in the European energy transition, addressing the dual challenge of reducing dependence on non-European battery supply chains and accelerating the shift to electric mobility. Its Gigafactory is expected to create 1,200 direct jobs and approximately 3,000 indirect jobs in the region.
What sets Verkor apart is its 'digital by design' industrial model, which integrates digital technologies throughout its manufacturing processes to optimize ramp-up speed and production efficiency. The company has progressed rapidly through commissioning and line balancing phases, moving toward full-scale serial production. Backed by prominent industrial and financial partners, Verkor is establishing itself as a fully-fledged European battery manufacturer in a strategically critical sector.
Verkor is a French industrial company aiming to pioneer low-carbon battery manufacturing in France. With the backing of prominent industrial companies such as Renault Group, Plastic Omnium and Schneider Electric, Verkor intends to electrify the future of European mobility.
With over 1100 experts from 53 different countries, our endeavor is to unite exceptional global talent to bring this ambitious and innovative project to life. Our strong and agile international team continues to grow and adapt to new challenges.
