Freyr announced an initial association agreement with Hent in December 2021.

This contract encompassed the first stage of development for Freyr’s Giga Arctic Factory in Mo Industrial Park.

The new agreement represents the commencement of the second phase and the beginning of the construction of the Giga Arctic plant.

Hent EVP market & development Knut Alstad said: “We’re extremely pleased and proud to be on board for the next phase of FREYR’s battery development in Norway. This is a testament to our strong alignment and positive collaboration as we navigate these large-scale construction projects side-by-side.

“At HENT, we are active proponents of building as safely and sustainably as possible, and when working with FREYR, we find a like-minded partner with a clear vision of a strong and sustainable battery industry in Norway, one that starts in the heart of Rana municipality.”
