#MPAC It's all systems go at high speed packaging and automation solutions firm Mpac Group . Today in a landmark announcement, the company said that it's casting and unit cell assembly equipment had successfully passed the first EV battery production trial at FREYR's Customer Qualification Plant (CQP) in Norway. Here Mpac Group machinery plays a central role in the production process, specifically automating the manufacture of cathode/anode electrodes and pouch cells. The next phase of the CQP trials, will involve moving to continuous production, manufacturing sample cells and increasing production speeds. Sure there is still plenty of hard work to do. Yet equally this is a major technological step-forward in building a ‘giga-factory’ for FREYR's 24M’s semisolid battery platform. CEO Adam Holland, commenting: "Progress at the CQP continues to demonstrate Mpac Group 's ability to support innovative Clean Energy technologies. I would like to thank the hard-working team, and our partners at Siemens and Festo for their support. There remains much work ahead to deliver our vision for a sustainable future, and this is just one step in the journey." FREYR Battery CEO Birger Steen adding: "I am proud to report this latest achievement at the CQP. We have demonstrated FREYR's technical and operational qualifications as an emerging industrialization partner of choice in the battery industry. The next step on our road map is to replicate what we have just done in an uninterrupted process, which will mark FREYR's initial cell production with the full automation of the CQP." Shore Capital Markets have reiterated their financial forecasts and 600p/share fair value. Onwards & upwards.

This is always a good source of information to keep ahead of the newest developments in battery testing.

Dear Battery Experts, Exiting news to share: We just published the second version of our battery components whitepaper!   The number of lithium-ion batteries sold will increase significantly in the coming years due to the growing sales of electric vehicles. As a result, the production of components that are installed in battery cells will increasingly become the focus of economic and ecological considerations. In cooperation with the VDMA (Sarah Michaelis and Jennifer Zienow), we summarized everything you need to know about the production of battery cell components. Which components does a battery cell consist of, and in which quantity? What are the most common processes to produce the described components? Which role does every component in a battery cell fulfil?   Special thanks to Achim Kampker, Christian Offermanns, Timon Elliger, Nikolaus Lackner and Valentin Mussehl (PEM RWTH Aachen University) as well as, among others the following companies:   IBU-tec advanced materials AG, Schenck Process, di-soric GmbH & Co.
