EV hub revived
Poland’s long-delayed electric-car project has been recast as a wider industrial and technology hub. EMP says a modern EV plant in Jaworzno could employ nearly 4,000 people by 2035 and support around 20,000 supplier jobs. Construction is planned for spring 2027, assuming a joint-venture agreement with a partner is signed this autumn, with first vehicles expected in late 2029.
The project is backed by PLN 4.5 billion in debt financing from Poland’s National Recovery Plan and a strategic partnership with Taiwan’s Foxconn. The shift is important: EMP is no longer presenting the scheme mainly as a national car brand, but as an ecosystem for software, electronics, AI, data and local suppliers.
