BETTERE EXPEDITION

How do you build a battery cell factory in Germany that sits between pilot lines and the big gigafactories? On the BETTERE EXPEDITION visit in Flintbek near Kiel, Simon spoke with Stefan Permien, CEO of UniverCell, about:

• His path from chemistry research and professional kitesurfing to CTO of CustomCells and founding UniverCell in 2019
• Why UniverCell builds for specialised applications rather than the automotive mass market, on one flexible line for around 1.2 million pouch cells a year
• LFP for heavy-duty cells, and high-nickel NMC with silicon-graphite anodes for high-power and high-energy cells
• What holds Europe's battery ecosystem back: risk shared along the supply chain, stable policy, and funding such as IPCEI
• What's next: a 21700 cylindrical cell with more than 330 Wh/kg

How do you operate batteries safely and profitably when the technology changes every 12 to 18 months? On the BETTERE EXPEDITION visit in Aachen, Simon spoke with Kai-Philipp, CEO of ACCURE Battery Intelligence, about:• Why stationary storage is ACCURE’s strongest market today, and why automotive takes longer• How US and German customers differ in how they buy new technology• The growing gap between batteries deployed and engineers trained• What it really takes to build a startup in Germany, and how to find the right problem to solveLet's E-Mobilize for the better - together.
