Automotive giant Stellantis and Massachusetts-based solid-state battery technology company Factorial Energy today announced the successful validation of Factorial’s automotive-sized FEST (Factorial Electrolyte System Technology) solid-state battery cells.
Researchers from Princeton University have found a new way to make ‘anode-free’ solid-state batteries that can overcome the limitations of lithium-ion batteries.
Mercedes-Benz integrated the solid-state battery, with cells from U.S.-based solid-state battery leader Factorial Energy, into a slightly modified EQS.
