Additionally, the firms says it will strengthen a ‘modern EV value chain’ covering Agratas’ Somerset gigafactory which will supply cells to JLR as the main anchor customer.
The roles are specifically geared for battery engineering, encompassing advanced energy storge systems, battery design and cell stack assemblies.
They will be based at JLR’s Gaydon Engineering Centre and the company’s £250m Future Energy Lab in Whitley, Coventry, where JLR develops and tests batteries and Electric Drive Units (EDUs).
