Its role EPC
Lucas & Gaillard Architectes is a French architecture practice specializing in design and planning services for construction projects.
The firm participates in major industrial and infrastructure developments. It is a member of the consortium selected by ProLogium Technology for its gigafactory in Dunkirk, France, alongside Sogea Caroni and Exyte. The consortium leads site access preparation, fencing, and platform works as part of the broader site infrastructure activities.
The company operates primarily in France, with involvement in the Hauts-de-France region supporting advanced manufacturing initiatives. Its work contributes to the Battery Valley ecosystem and the establishment of facilities for next-generation solid-state lithium ceramic battery production.
Construction of the first phase of the gigafactory is scheduled to begin in 2026, with initial production targeted for 2028. Public details on the firm's ownership structure, additional projects, or specific technologies remain limited beyond its documented role in this European industrial project.
