What is this about?

  • The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) provides support to 6,486 workers laid off by the bankrupt battery manufacturer Northvolt in Sweden.
  • The aim is to facilitate their rapid reintegration into the labour market through tailored measures such as coaching, training, and start-up assistance.
  • The insolvency stems from global competition, particularly from subsidised Chinese battery producers.
  • The EU is allocating 8.5 million euros to stabilise the regional economy in northern Sweden and retain skilled workers.
  • Politically, the measure seeks to strengthen Europe’s strategic autonomy in the battery sector and advance the green transition.
