C&EN's Matt Blois speaks with our CEO Andrew Wang on Standard Potential Co.'s start up journey. The cover article also features glimpses of our sodium-ion battery technology development and testing as a Columbia Electrochemical Energy Center & Columbia Engineering spin out with Dan Steingart & Jeff Fitts, Ph.D.
Why PhD to CEO? C&EN’s cover features the highs, lows, and pivotal moments in Standard Potential Co.'s founding journey with me and Richard May in the battery startup world. Journalist Matt Blois spent 9 months with us, weaving our story with Sudharsan Dwaraknath & Quorum Bio's in biotech, and Laura Stoy, PhD & Rivalia Chemical Co.'s in minerals. Matt includes all the intricate details seen in our labs and discussed in our conversations. Also featured are enablers like Activate's Cyrus Wadia & Brenna Teigler, PhD as well as Breakthrough Energy 's Ashley Grosh that empower scientist founders to derisk the path to market. This piece was a great chance to reflect on Standard Potential’s path to date. Excited to continue the story! Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/eYsZ-e5y

Interested in how sustainable, safe, & scalable sodium-ion is changing the battery game? "If this describes you, we should talk." 🔋 📣 Thank you to the New Energy New York for coming out to our New York showcase with Activate Fellows!
🎉🎉 #NENY is proud to sponsor two Activate Fellows this year with a focus in batteries. A big congratulations to the team at Standard Potential Co. (also a #ChargeUp company and new member of Koffman Southern Tier Incubator!) @Richard May and @Andrew Wang are leading this innovative company as they scale a breakthrough sodium-ion battery technology that eliminates critical bottlenecks in existing terawatt-hour-scale lithium-ion manufacturing infrastructure while using sustainable and abundant mineral inputs. Deploying Standard Potential’s batteries into diurnal, longer-duration storage applications enables the proliferation of cheaper and cleaner energy.

Technology to market in action: Standard Potential Co. is commercializing sodium-ion innovations developed with ARPA-E and the Columbia Electrochemical Energy Center. Thank you to ARPA-E Program Director Dr. Halle Cheeseman for the opportunity to showcase our most recent advancements!
ARPA-E Program Director Dr. Halle Cheeseman recently visited OPEN 2021 awardee Columbia University to check out their groundbreaking work on sodium-based long-duration batteries. These innovative batteries, which could be manufactured using traditional methods, promise significantly lower costs compared to state-of-the-art batteries. Excitingly, this research has led to the creation of a new start-up, Standard Potential Co., which aims to commercialize this transformative tech. Check out our latest OPEN funding opportunity, Vision OPEN 2024, seeking transformative technologies that align with ARPA-E's vision of the energy future: https://lnkd.in/euw5wXNM #ARPAEontheRoad
