51 Nordic Battery Belt Logistics is an Interreg Botnia-Atlantica project aiming to develop a strategy for sustainable and cost efficient cross-border logistics for the battery cluster. – We saw that Northvolt would establish itself in Skellefteå and we knew that it will affect transports in the region, since the raw materials and the supporting industry are partly also available in the region, says Mathias.

The purpose is to provide a better understanding of new logistic flows that are expected to emerge in the region due to ongoing and planned battery plant establishments. – We probably have a hard time imagining
