Sulfide-based solid electrolytes

Sulfide-based solid electrolytes have the best-known balance of conductivity (i.e., the ability to move ions quickly) and processability (i.e., the ability to be produced defect-free on industry standard roll-to-roll battery manufacturing equipment) out of all solid electrolyte classes. We develop our materials for stability and conductivity within each layer of the cell while also optimizing for areas such as cost and compatibility with conventional lithium-ion processing.

Working with

Solid Power has extensive partnerships with both BMW and Ford to jointly develop all-solid-state batteries. In October 2021, Solid Power announced a partnership with SK Innovation to produce Solid Power’s automotive-scale all-solid-state battery cells utilizing Solid Power’s sulfide-based solid electrolyte, proprietary cell designs and production processes. The company was initially funded by prominent investors including Hyundai, Volta Energy Technologies, Umicore, Sanoh, A123 Systems and Solvay.

"Our additional investment in Solid Power this month underscores our belief that production feasible solid-state batteries are in reach in this decade."

"Solid Power's sulfide-based solid electrolyte and silicon-based anode chemistry demonstrates impressive battery improvements and performance, including: increased range, lower cost, more vehicle interior space and better value and greater safety for our customers."

"Also meaningful, Solid Power's unique chemistry can be built using the same manufacturing process as existing lithium-ion batteries, facilitating a seamless technology transition and allow us to reuse about 70% of our capital investment in existing lithium-ion manufacturing lines."

"All-solid-state batteries are one of the most promising steps towards more efficient, sustainable and profitable electric vehicles."

"Together with Solid Power we have already developed an outstanding 20 Ah all-solid-state cell. Solid Power has demonstrated its ability to produce and scale batteries that are designed to power longer-range, lower cost and more competitive electric vehicles using existing lithium-ion battery manufacturing infrastructure."

"This makes the technology unique and more suitable for industrialization and large-scale roll-out."

CNBC’s Jim Cramer is bullish on soon-to-be-public battery maker Solid Power as a “zero hype” electric vehicle play.

The solid-state battery manufacturer counts Ford and BMW among its investors and makes technology that Cramer said could change the game for electric vehicle makers.

Solid Power is set to go public via a merger with special purpose acquisition company Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corp III.

Ford has raised its stake in a manufacturer of solid-state batteries — a move that its chief product and operations officer, Hau Thai-Tang, says will strengthen the company’s effort to increase the range and reduce the costs of its next generation of electric vehicles.

Ford, along with BMW, this week announced their investment in a $130 million funding round for Solid Power, a Denver-area company that is developing sulfide solid-state battery technology.

Thai-Tang says the technology should give Ford the flexibility to either shrink battery sizes to make it less expensive to manufacture some vehicles or keep the same size battery and achieve a greater range of distance in other models.
