Volkswagen has something called Power Day coming up on Monday, which might remind you of a certain other automaker’s event last September, which was called Battery Day. According to a new report, the events will be probably similar, in that Volkswagen is set to announce plans of a massive expansion of its battery supply.

Reuters reports that Volkswagen plans to source 300 gigawatt hours of battery cells every year by the time that the expansion is complete, in 2030. To put that in context, Volkswagen thinks demand will be up to 150 gigawatt hours by 2025.
FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Germany s Volkswagen is not concerned by any Apple plans for a passenger vehicle that could include the iPhone maker s battery technology, its chief executive Herbert Diess said. Reuters reported in December that Apple may have progressed enough to build a vehicle for mass markets by 2024, helped by cost cuts in battery technology. The car industry is not a typical tech-sector that you could take over at a single stroke, Diess was quoted as saying an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. Apple will not manage that overnight, he added. While Apple s plans are not public, Diess said its intentions as such were logical because the company had expertise in batteries, software and design, and that it had deep pockets to build on these competencies.
