About Morrow
Purpose
To safeguard our planet and our way of life for future generations.
Vision
To be a world-leading partner for accelerating the green energy transition.
Mission
To develop and manufacture the most cost-effective
and sustainable battery cells in the world.
Based in the southern parts of Norway, Morrow is currently in the process of establishing its 43 GWh Giga-factory which utilizes 100% renewable hydroelectric power to manufacture batteries with the lowest possible CO2 footprint.
The factory will be operational from Q4 2024. To accelerate development and qualify its products for key market segments, Morrow is building an industrialization center which supports the company’s vision to create sustainable batteries.
With these facilities, Morrow and the company’s partners are establishing ‘the Battery coast’ – a sustainable eco-system built around the battery value chain.
Morrow Batteries was founded in 2020 by strong and committed owners. The two leading investors are Agder Energi Venture, a wholly owned subsidiary of Agder Energi, and NOAH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Gjelsten Holding.
