Battery Workforce Challenge

The Battery Workforce Challenge is a new three-year student competition that will kick off in Fall 2023 and will challenge universities and vocational schools from across North America to design, build, test, and integrate an advanced EV battery pack into a Stellantis vehicle.

Managed by Argonne National Laboratory for the U.S. Department of Energy in partnership with Stellantis and other government and industry sponsors, Battery Workforce Challenge will team up to 11 North American universities with a community college, trade school or other vocational partner to execute the competition requirements, helping to prepare a diverse workforce for future battery engineering and manufacturing careers.
