Strategic Investors Tour NextSource Materials’ Battery Anode Facility in Abu Dhabi
NextSource Materials hosted a site visit on Nov 25 2025 at its planned 30,000‑tpa Battery Anode Facility in Abu Dhabi’s ICAD. The plant, validated by an Oct‑2025 study, will supply ~9,000 tpa of intermediate anode material to Mitsubishi Chemical under a multi‑year contract. Stantec is completing FEED, long‑lead equipment shipments have begun, and financing and permitting are pending. Installation and commissioning are slated for late‑2026, with initial production targeted for Q4 2026, positioning the UAE as a key non‑Asian anode hub.
