Paragraph: 76
Set out forecast labour market, training costs, and plans to reskill automotive sector professionals.
Recommendation
The UK faces skills shortages across the battery supply chain. The Advanced Manufacturing Plan and UK Battery Strategy should set out: a) the forecast labour market involved in reaching its targets for UK-supplied batteries b) the forecast training cost for this workforce; and c) how they plan to train and reskill professionals in the automotive sector to support domestic production of electric vehicles, batteries and other processes in the battery supply chain, including through devolution of the requisite training budgets to local areas.
