Bengaluru-based advanced battery technology startup Log9 Materials Thursday unveiled an indigenously-developed cell manufacturing facility at its campus in Jakkuru, aimed at meeting India’s future electric mobility goals.
With the newly-launched facility, the startup is aiming to achieve at least 50MWh of peak cell production capacity in the next one year, and then they would be scaling to over 5GWh in the next 3-5 years.
Speaking at the inauguration event, Dr. K Sivan, Ex-Chairperson, ISRO, said, “Just as Dr. Sarabhai (ISRO founder Dr. Vikram Sarabhai) many years back understood and laid emphasis on indigenous innovation to advance and reap large scale benefits of space-technology, Log9’s path-breaking indigenous research and infrastructure development shall bring India closer to self-reliance in energy storage and EV sectors in the near future.”
