Vianode

Our CEO, Burkhard Straube, met with Mike Kerkvliet at the Via TWO site to share why St. Thomas is the right location for Vianode’s first large-scale synthetic graphite facility and what this milestone means for the future of clean battery materials in North America. They talked about everything from sustainable graphite production and EV supply chains to the strong local support that helped St. Thomas stand out in a global site search.

Earlier this week, we attended Future Battery Forum 2025!🔋 It was inspiring to see so many key players from the European battery industry come together. A highlight was catching up with our Scandinavian colleagues from Fortum Battery Recycling and Morrow Batteries. The forum clearly showed the strong competence driving Europe’s battery value chain. At the same time, a shared message across discussions and panels was the need for stronger support from the EU. To build resilient European supply chains, better incentives are needed to encourage choosing European battery material suppliers. Our CCO, Stefan Bergold, also took the stage to talk about Vianode’s role in shaping a sustainable battery future, adding our perspective to the broader industry conversation on local sourcing, sustainability, and scale. Thank you to everyone for the insights and discussions!⚡ #futurebattery25

Site preparation is in full swing as we lay the groundwork for Via TWO! Check out the video for a glimpse of what’s happening on-site 👇 #Vianode #ViaTWO

📢We have signed a letter of intent with C4V Holdings to supply high-performance synthetic anode graphite for energy storage systems (ESS). "Building resilient supply chains for critical battery materials is fundamental to both the EV and ESS markets in North America and Europe. While EVs remain at the center of our growth strategy, ESS solutions complement and diversify our commercial portfolio, support capacity utilization at Via ONE during our global scale-up and help drive the wider transition to clean energy,” said Dr. Stefan Bergold, CCO of Vianode. 📄Read the full press release here: (link)

Yesterday was a proud milestone for everyone at Vianode.

Yesterday we proudly joined Premier Doug Ford, Minister Victor Fedeli, Minister Rob Flack, and Mayor Joe Preston to announce the start of site preparations for Via TWO in St. Thomas. This milestone marks the beginning of building a local and resilient critical minerals supply chain for North America. Via TWO will become the region’s largest low-emission synthetic anode graphite facility, founded on collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to sustainability. A heartfelt thank you to our partners in Canada, Ontario, the City of St. Thomas, our incredible Vianode team, and all the other great supporters along the way. Ontario’s CAD 670 million commitment is a powerful reflection of Canada’s belief in this project – your support is what turns milestones like this into reality 🔋 City of St. Thomas Invest Ontario Invest in Canada | Investir au Canada

📢We’re excited to announce that site preparations have officially started for Via TWO, Vianode’s first large-scale, low-emission synthetic graphite plant in St. Thomas, Ontario. This milestone marks the beginning of building North America’s largest facility for low-emission synthetic anode graphite. Via TWO will strengthen the local critical mineral supply chain and deliver high-performance graphite with 90% lower CO₂ emissions, supporting a more sustainable battery industry. “Today marks an important step towards a resilient North American battery supply chain. Ontario and the city of St. Thomas have been strong partners from day one, and Via TWO will bring industrial-scale, low-emission graphite to market through a phased build-out that supports customers, communities, and the clean-energy transition,” says Burkhard Straube, CEO of Vianode. 📄Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/dqMJZ56p
