Plans for a new £200 million battery cell development facility in the West Midlands which would have created 150 jobs have collapsed following the administration of manufacturer Britishvolt.
It was announced last summer that the brand new unit on Prologis Park Hams Hall, east of Birmingham, would house a development plant for cells to be used in electric vehicle (EV) batteries.
The warehouse, which covers 260,000 sq ft and was completed last autumn, was already being constructed speculatively by Prologis UK ahead of the announcement about the tie up with Britishvolt but the hunt for tenants has now had to resume.
