The world is demanding cleaner energy—and at the heart of that transition lies one powerful component: the battery. In a recent episode of Cellmates by Lumicity, host Mike Norton sat down with Les Alexander to explore how this Indiana-based hub is accelerating battery research and reshaping the future of energy storage in America.
Battery cell fabrication consists of several steps, including electrode slurry mixing, electrode coating and drying, electrode calendering/densification, electrode slitting, cell fabrication, electrolyte filling, and electrochemical testing.
NI PAtools is a cutting-edge test development environment designed specifically for EV test systems.
The Byterat platform will be used by BIC scientists, engineers and executives to manage data from both facilities, and enables the needs of hundreds of BIC customers to be supported.
The BIC Indianapolis expansion will add nearly 4000 square feet of additional dry room space for cell manufacturing and assembly.
X-BATT and Semplastics, innovators in energy storage solutions, are happy to announce a new collaboration with Princeton NuEnergy and the Battery Innovation Center, leading players in the energy domain. Together, the parties aim to transform the energy storage landscape. This joint initiative has been recognized and supported by a Phase II Small Business Innovation and Research (SBIR) Grant through the Department of Energy, emphasizing its potential impact and significance.
Les Alexander comes to BIC with more than 25 years of executive leadership experience in the commercial and national security sectors, most recently serving as Vice President of Government and Defense R&D at Navitas Systems an East Penn Company. Prior to starting his business career, he served the country for 12 years as an officer in the United States Navy rising to the level of Lieutenant Commander.
