Chemistry & Cell Components

Sodium ion cell production process is virtually identical to Lithium ion

Avoids need to reinvent manufacturing steps/protocols used in other next generation batteries (e.g. Li-S, Li-ASSB, SSE containing)

Form factors are flexible, i.e. cylindrical cells, prismatic, pouch cells are manufacturable for both SIB and LIBs.

Potential areas of production cost reductions: Reduced dry room requirements, eliminate need for SOC shipping
