Price, performance, pollution. Choose two.

There’s no reason for battery performance to come at the cost of the environment. And clean shouldn’t mean costly.

We’ve committed to powering cell production with fossil-free energy, invested into innovation of process design to optimize use of resources and established an in-house battery recycling business to reduce consumption of mined raw materials.
