QS & Corning Team Up to Advance Battery Tech

QuantumScape Corporation (QS) and Corning Incorporated have joined forces to advance battery technology. The partnership combines QS's expertise in materials science with Corning's manufacturing prowess in ceramics, which is crucial for producing high-quality car batteries and other technology-driven devices.

Dr. Siva Sivaram, CEO and President of QS, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration. He believes Corning's capabilities in ceramics manufacturing make it an ideal partner for QS's technology ecosystem, which focuses on improving battery technology.

Ron Verkleeren, Senior Vice President of Corning's Emerging Innovations Group, shares this excitement. He looks forward to working with QS to push battery technology forward, potentially revolutionizing the way batteries, including car batteries, are produced and used.

The primary goal of this collaboration is high-volume production of QS's ceramic separators for commercial applications. This will be a significant step towards rapidly industrializing QS's next-generation battery technology, which could greatly improve the performance and lifespan of batteries, including car batteries.

QS and Corning have agreed to jointly develop and commercialize ceramic separator manufacturing capabilities for QS's solid-state batteries. This partnership aims to build an ecosystem of partners to speed up the process of bringing QS's next-generation battery technology to market, potentially transforming the way technology-driven devices, including car batteries, are powered.
