In this episode, Apoorv Shaligram and Uttam Sen, co-founders of e-Trnl Energy, talk about the critical need for developing cell technologies and cell manufacturing technologies and processes locally, for the long-term sustainability of India’s EV ecosystem. The entrepreneurs have just raised some funding to set up a full-fledged R&D centre in Bengaluru to turn their knowhow into a commercial product – a locally developed and manufactured cell with lower costs and higher quality than what is in the market today, they say.
