Exploring Production Sites and Cooperation Opportunities

A large Canadian battery delegation visited the Ecopro Pohang Campus to discuss ways to promote exchange and cooperation.

Ecopro announced that on the 16th, Tamara Mohini, the Canadian Ambassador to Korea, along with about 40 members of the Canadian battery delegation, including representatives from Canadian secondary battery-related companies, visited the Ecopro Pohang Campus.

A large Canadian battery delegation visited Ecopro Pohang Campus to discuss ways to exchange and cooperate.

Organized by the Canadian Embassy in Korea, this visit was arranged to understand the battery ecosystem of Pohang City, which has established itself as a major hub in the battery circular economy sector, and to enable Canadian secondary battery manufacturers to build partnerships with Ecopro and other secondary battery-related companies in the Pohang area.

The Canadian battery delegation consisted of 11 Canadian companies engaged in secondary battery-related businesses, as well as representatives from the Canadian Embassy in Korea and Global Affairs Canada.

During the visit, the delegation directly inspected Ecopro’s production site where the ‘Closed Loop System (CLS, Closed Loop Eco-system)’?which integrates the manufacturing processes of cathode materials from raw materials to precursors, lithium, cathode active materials, and recycling?is established, and exchanged various opinions on cooperation plans between Ecopro and Canadian battery companies.

Yuntae Kim, CEO of Ecopro Innovation, said, “We thank Ambassador Mohini and the Canadian company representatives for visiting the Ecopro Pohang Campus. We hope this visit will serve as an opportunity to further activate exchanges between Korean and Canadian battery companies.”

Last October, a delegation of about 10 representatives from the Quebec battery sector, including mayors from three cities such as Becancour in Quebec, and representatives from the Quebec government office, visited the Ecopro Pohang Campus to tour the production site and explore cooperation plans.
