Nano One demonstrates the advantages of its One-Pot LFP cathode production process
Battery cathode active materials (CAM) developer Nano One Materials has conducted a study with chemical processing company Worley Chemetics to demonstrate the economic advantages of Nano One’s patented One-Pot process for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode production. The comparative analysis showed that One-Pot could reduce total invested capital costs and operational costs of two 25,000-tonne-per-year… Read more »
EV charger manufacturer Tritium to start “a new chapter” under CEO Arcady Sosinov
When EV charger manufacturer Tritium fell from its perch in April, it caused tremors in the EV charging industry, as the company has sold 13,000 chargers in 47 countries, and claimed some 30 percent of the US market share for DC fast chargers in 2023. In August, India-based Exicomm agreed to take over the company,… Read more »
