EV battery evolution will occur by orchestrating a number of tech elements to optimize electrodes. Nanoramic is one of the companies trying to crack the battery supply chain.
EV Battery Cost/Performance Race
By Jennifer Baljko (additional reporting by Junko Yoshida)
What’s at stake?
Because EV market success hinges on the cost/performance of the battery, everybody wants in on the evolving EV battery ecosystem. Nanoramic is one of the companies trying to crack the battery supply chain while the myriad factors determining optimal battery cost/performance — chemistries, binders, production equipment — remain in flux. Nanoramic argues that the lingering uncertainty about what the optimal EV battery will look like gives its chemistry-agnostic binder technology an edge. But for now, the only sure thing is that whoever picks the winning battery formula wins the EV race.
