ACC (Automotive Cells Company) is a European battery-cell joint venture founded as an equal three-way partnership between Stellantis, TotalEnergies (via its subsidiary Saft), and Mercedes-Benz in 2021; a February 2024 capital increase rebalanced the shareholding to Stellantis 45%, Mercedes-Benz 30%, and Saft 25% (see Ownership below), making Stellantis the largest single shareholder while all three remain active JV partners.
Corrected 2026-08-29: the three founding shareholders held EQUAL 1/3 stakes only from Mercedes-Benz's Sept 2021 entry until a Feb 2024 capital injection (ACC press release, acc-emotion.com/node/2877) rebalanced them to Stellantis 45% / Mercedes-Benz 30% / Saft 25%, effective end of March 2024; corroborated as still current by a 2026 Stellantis SEC Form 6-K reference. No single shareholder exceeds 50%, so this is a three-way JV, not a controlled subsidiary — parent_slug is not applicable. GLEIF's record for Automotive Cells Company SE (LEI 894500ZHIMKNJBBCEM48, now LAPSED) reports no parent, consistent with no single controlling owner; a second GLEIF entity, Automotive Cells Company Factories Europe SA (LEI 89450044W7N69QK68C38), is an operating subsidiary of the SE and not a separate ownership fact.
Named counterparties identified by open-source research and written only where a primary source states the relationship — never inferred from sector or co-mention. 1 customer-side. This is a partial view: it covers the relationships we could evidence, not the company's full supply base.
TotalEnergies' newsroom (joint statement by Stellantis, TotalEnergies and Mercedes-Benz) states ACC will supply Mercedes-Benz with high-performance battery technologies from its production locations 'from mid of the decade.' Original source (group.mercedes-benz.com battery-strategy newsroom page) returned HTTP 403 as of 2026-09-23; replaced with this live joint-partner announcement covering the same commitment. related_party: true because Mercedes-Benz is simultaneously a 30% ACC shareholder (see ownership above), not an arm's-length third-party customer — same structure as the MP Materials/DoD row in mp.md.
Scope. Absence of a counterparty here is not evidence that none exists — most commercial sourcing is confidential and never becomes public. Rows without a share figure mean no share was disclosed, not that the relationship is small.
Every exposure is read as a buyer dependency; the top 3 are its binding chokepoints.
As a buyer, policy pressure across its consumed materials is flat.
Descriptive trend in official policy actions on this company’s materials — a policy-pressure trend, not a price or trading signal. No forward probability is implied. Direction is measured on actions we have discovered, and discovery lags events: where the recent window is too thin to support a calm reading, the row says coverage-limited instead of easing.
