Developing and scaling a dry cathode electrode production process is essential for the practical application and commercialization of ASSBs. Building on a successful joint development program, Nissan and LiCAP will accelerate the development and scale-up of ASSB cathode electrode production using LiCAP’s proprietary Activated Dry Electrode ® technology. This solvent-free process offers significant advantages over traditional methods in cost, sustainability, production efficiency, and performance.
“We’re proud to deepen our partnership with Nissan as we work together to bring cleaner, faster, and more efficient battery manufacturing solutions to market,” said Dr. Linda Zhong, CEO of LiCAP Technologies. “Our advanced dry electrode technologies are designed to support large-scale production while reducing environmental impact, making it ideal for global EV platforms.”
The partnership marks a major milestone in the two companies’ shared vision to drive innovation in ASSB manufacturing and support the next generation of high-performance, cost-effective EVs. As part of the collaboration, LiCAP and Nissan will accelerate the development and scale up cycle and expand the integration of dry cathode electrodes into Nissan’s ASSB platforms, supporting the company’s Ambition 2030 vision.
