Our Approach

The Project Consortium

We have brought together some of the most innovative manufacturing partners to work with the University of Wollongong to translate cutting-edge sodium-ion battery research into demonstrations products.

We have engaged with one of Australia's most forward-thinking utilities to demonstrate sodium-ion battery technology in a real-world application.

We have partnered with Australia's Renewable Energy Agency to fund this exciting and innovative project.
