Fallout continues over construction plans for Northvolt EV battery plant
Description
March 28, 2024
Northvolt, the Swedish EV battery manufacturer building a plant outside Montreal, has admitted to destroying more than 1,000 square metres of wetlands – all in an area where the company wasn’t supposed to be working. The environment minister has threatened to fine Northvolt but financial penalties have yet to materialize. Meanwhile, environmentalists are saying that what Northvolt did and the Quebec government’s response are unacceptable. Global’s Tim Sargeant reports.
