The 5,800 square foot state-of-the-art facility will strengthen StoreDot’s presence in the region, bringing it closer to major automotive customers and manufacturing partners. It will also provide access to a pool of top technical and engineering talent from prestigious West Coast universities and innovative battery companies.
Additionally, the North American robust electric vehicle and energy storage supply chain enables StoreDot to source alternative materials and suppliers for its XFC battery technology.
The official opening of this centre represents another tangible step towards StoreDot’s XFC technology commercialisation with the US team playing a vital role in supporting its R&D and its globalisation focus.
“We are excited to officially open our Advanced Technology Campus in the heart of Southern California's technology corridor, representing another major step towards commercialising our game-changing XFC battery technology” said Dr. David Lee, Chief Scientific Officer and Head of the Advanced Technology Campus. “This newly established facility allows us to tap into the incredible talent pool in the region while strengthening our ties with US based automotive OEMs, suppliers and strategic partners. We are actively looking to grow our Irvine team to accelerate our breakthrough research in advanced battery materials and manufacturing processes for extreme fast charging of electric vehicles.”
The new facility is fully operated by StoreDot’s team who collaborates closely with its 130+ professionals at its headquarters in Herzliya, Israel.
