Upcell Alliance, a non-profit association focused on advancing the battery manufacturing ecosystem, has established Together, a collaborative consortium designed to connect industrial partners across the entire battery value chain to help speed up the rollout of battery gigafactories around the world.
The consortium was created to operationalize the Upcell Turnkey Solutions initiative. In tandem with the launch, the Upcell Alliance is expanding to North America.
Backed by Upcell’s ecosystem of more than 150 members, Together aims to introduce a transparent, supplier-neutral model, enabling manufacturers to access flexible turnkey solutions, from single production lines to fully integrated facilities, while optimizing efficiency and scalability.
Upcell appointed Giacomo Del Panta, Chief Customer Management Officer at Italian automation firm Comau, as the first President of Together.
Together unites a network of partners from cell manufacturing to pack assembly, process equipment optimization and recycling, to deliver complete and adaptable solutions to battery manufacturers around the world. Members have full responsibility for sourcing, installing and commissioning process machinery and infrastructure.
The consortium introduces a supplier-agnostic approach to partner selection, guided by end-user input and performance-based criteria. Its modular engagement model, ranging from consultancy to full project management, aims to streamline collaboration, enable faster decision-making and promote scalable execution.
“Together represents a new way of building battery independence. It’s a pragmatic and collaborative platform that enables us to combine our strengths, win projects, and prove that European and global automation providers can lead in this dynamic and fast-growing market,” said Giacomo Del Panta.
