Electrification and the pursuit of a clean, green and circular economy have shifted demand in industry and consumers alike.

We believe that batteries are the most common solution to the energy storage problem, with aging grid infrastructure, more renewables on the grid and higher demand for electricity coming from the switch to electric vehicles.
In this white paper:
- What is an electric vehicle battery?
- Evolving battery technology and what innovation is trending toward
- The rapidly expanding global market for energy storage solutions
