Factorial Energy

The Cool Down shared a great piece on our partnership with Mercedes-Benz AG and how we're joining forces to revolutionize EVs. By breaking away from traditional lithium-ion, automotive OEMs are finding that our quasi- and all-solid-state batteries can alleviate customer concerns that have been holding owners of combustion engines back from making the switch to an electric vehicle. On top of the benefits of improved performance and safety, these cells are not expected to raise prices beyond lithium-ion as the supporting infrastructure is no longer necessary.

Our Co-Founder and CEO, Siyu Huang, shared her expert insights on the importance of building a strong recycling network to ensure a sustainable future for solid-state battery technology. As electric vehicles become the standard in the automotive industry, demand for solid-state batteries is expected to rise. While Europe is addressing this with battery passports, we’ve taken proactive steps by forming partnerships with recycling plants well ahead of mass production. With the first wave of solid-state batteries projected to reach end-of-life by the mid-2030s, the industry is in a critical window to develop effective recycling solutions. We are confident in the economic and sustainable potential of a circular economy for this technology and remain committed to championing its growth.
