India’s Tata Group plans to invest £4 billion ($5.2bn) to build an electric vehicle (EV) battery plant in Somerset, south-west England to supply its Jaguar Land Rover factories. Scheduled to become operational in 2026, the factory is expected to create 4,000 jobs and generate an initial output of 40-gigawatt hours (GWh). UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak views the move as a major step in transitioning the country’s auto industry towards EVs. However, the exact amount of financial support the government provided to secure the investment remains undisclosed.
