Northwater also plans to set up a plant in Poland to produce battery systems for energy storage companies and the mining industry.
Gdansk\'s plant will remove the batteries from the Swedish plant and use them to develop battery systems or modules.
A spokesman for Northwater said the company was not involved in negotiations to form a German company.
But he said Northwater would welcome more European alliances. U. S.
Tesla\'s chief executive, Elon Musk, said on July that the company is bullish on Germany as the location of its first European Geely plant.
Tesla already has a business in Germany, Pruem, and its Grohmann automation division specializes in providing automated manufacturing systems for battery manufacturers.
Tesla said it plans to build three more Geely cars in Nevada to match its first car.

The company said in July that it would set up its first production base in Europe, Germany, and provide lithium to automakers, BMW. ion batteries.
BMW plans to purchase 4 billion euros of batteries from CATL in the next few years, one of them.
5 billion euros from the new site in Erford, eastern Germany.
The CATL plant will create approximately 600 jobs and reach a production capacity of 14 giva hours (GWh)by 2022.
CATL shipments were 12 GWh in 2017.
BYD, China Electric Vehicle manufacturer (1211. HK)(002594. SZ)
Bernstein Research says he is one of the largest battery producers in the world with the lowest production costs.
A senior executive told Reuters earlier this year that BYD is considering producing batteries in Europe, adding that it is unclear where it might be located.
The company has two electric bus production bases in Europe, Hungary and France.

LG Chemical supplies batteries to German automakers Audi, Porsche and Daimler.
The company also received a contract to supply batteries to the German Volkswagen starting at the end of 2019.
The plant plans to produce an annual output of 100,000 batteries, roughly equivalent to 4 GWh, which means that the plant\'s capacity is only a small part of Europe\'s expected demand in the future.
