Let's give a big, belated welcome to Volta's first team member, Pietro Stilli, stepping into the shoes of our Electrochemical R&D Specialist!   Pietro officially came on board in August 2023, but we had to keep him locked in our brand new lab with our CTO Gabriele Consiglio, to make some order to our gear and roll-out our first batch of #sodiumionbattery cells. With a background in the hydrogen world and material characterization for post-lithium battery technologies, Pietro brings a whole new level of smarts to our ambitious mission. We're thrilled to have him among us as we seek out groundbreaking solutions for our structural batteries.   Originally from Pistoia, Tuscany, Pietro's mind is fueled by music, board games, and yes, even video games. We're pretty sure he's going to add some serious flair to our research team. Welcome, Pietro!

La tecnologia unica delle #BatterieStrutturali di VOLTA Structural Energy consiste in un’innovativa architettura che permette di combinare in un materiale multifunzionale elevate proprietà meccaniche a capacità di energy storage. Uno degli aspetti distintivi della nostra soluzione rivoluzionaria è il fatto di essere una piattaforma #multichimica, capace quindi di integrare sia formulazioni esistenti e consolidate che soluzioni all’avanguardia nel mondo dell’#elettrochimica per lo stoccaggio energetico. Questa flessibilità ci permette di poter soddisfare i requisiti di settori differenti, dalla mobilità terrestre, all’aviazione sino allo spazio. In Volta Structural Energy abbiamo scelto di fare della chimica al Sodio il nostro #test-vehicle per validare le nostre innovative #BatterieStrutturali.
