摘要

在脱碳过程中,全球对电池的需求不断增加,并试图增加其在欧洲的产量,从而减少对亚洲市场的依赖。因此,电池产业集群正在北欧地区兴起,挪威、瑞典和芬兰为电池生产提供了必要的原材料。由于该地区的运输连接问题,特别是随着该行业开始增长,该行业将在其供应链中遇到中长期挑战。区域网络将通过为行动者之间的合作提供空间,在缓解这些挑战方面发挥关键作用;然而,区域网络如何解决这些运输连通性问题仍有待探索。本文介绍了一项定性研究的结果,该研究采用网络方法来研究北欧电池集群中新型网络的性质和作用。他们表明,北欧电池带(NBB)是一个新兴的跨境区域网络,旨在主动识别北欧地区当前和设想的连通性挑战。因此,NBB有助于制定可持续和具有成本效益的运输系统的物流战略和库存,这将支持电池行业的供应链并减少行业的碳足迹。总体而言,本文提出了对网络及其在区域能源转型文献(即电池行业)中的作用的理解。

An overview of the Nordic Battery Belt: an emerging network for cooperation within the Nordic battery cluster
There is an increasing global demand for batteries in the decarbonisation process and an attempt to increase its production within Europe, thereby reducing the dependency on the Asian market. Consequently, the battery industry cluster is emerging in the Nordic region with the requisite raw materials for battery production in Norway, Sweden, and Finland. The industry will encounter medium- and long-term challenges in its supply value chain due to the envisaged transport connectivity issues in the region, especially as the industry begins experiencing growth. Regional networks will play a key role in mitigating these challenges by providing a space for cooperation among actors; however, how regional networks address these transport connectivity issues still needs to be explored. This paper introduces results from a qualitative study that adopts the network approach in examining the nature and the role of a novel network within the Nordic battery cluster. They show that the Nordic Battery Belt (NBB) is an emerging cross-border regional network established to proactively identify the prevailing and the envisaged connectivity challenges within the Nordic region. The NBB, therefore, contributes to the development of logistical strategies and inventories for sustainable and cost-effective transport systems, which will support the battery industry’s supply chain and reduce the industry’s carbon footprints. Overall, the paper advances the understanding of networks and their role in the regional energy transitions literature viz-a-viz the battery industry.
