  • On October 24, 2023

Slovenian battery manufacturer TAB (TAB tovarna akumulatorskih baterij d.d.) is opening the first gigafactory for lithium-ion energy storage systems (ESS) in Prevalje in 2024. The Austrian company Rosendahl Nextrom GmbH, with its brand BM-Rosendahl, will develop, build, and supply the highly automated line for module and pack assembly.

The line will produce up to 180.000 battery packs in 3-shift operation per year, corresponding to a total capacity of 1 GWh. The battery packs can be used as stationary storage and as traction batteries. With the assembly line, BM-Rosendahl supplies all process steps; from cell preparation, cell stacking and subsequent assembly in modules, to final assembly in battery packs. The use of efficient laser welding technology ensures a precise as well as reliable connection of the frame parts and cell connectors.

Roman Burja, CEO of TAB: “This investment is a key milestone for TAB, and we are happy to collaborate with BM-Rosendahl. With this project we will significantly increase our ESS manufacturing capacity and we will contribute to European green transition.”

Gerhard Jakopic, CEO of Rosendahl Nextrom GmbH: “We are proud to realize this innovative and flexible system together with our long-standing customer TAB. This achieves the highest standard on the European market.”
