“We, 10 years in, we got into our first consumer electronics device, and, you know, it'll be Sort of around five years more from then to get into, you know, first car that folks can buy.”

“And then we also made a announcement that we signed a supply agreement with Panasonic. In December. And so we're also working with them to bring our batteries into their customers' electric cars.”

“The world is not in technical terms, a state function, meaning in a state function, if something should exist, it becomes that just because the world should be electric does not make it electric. The world is a path function. I mean, I think about like an alte…”

“The last financing, yeah, was over three billion dollars, and we've raised close to a billion now.”

“We helped them, you know, improve their battery performance by about 20% relative to the prior generation.”

“Ultimately, it will be several billion dollars of investment. The first phase is, is A couple hundred million of investment that will produce, again, ultimately several million electric cars worth of product.”

“And right now we're planning to be complete with the Current phase of the factory, what we call phase one at the end of this year, and we'll spend the first half of next year bringing that online very carefully to make very high quality product, and we'll begi…”

“And so that's where the technology is today, and then over the next few years, we'll get that to a 30% improvement. Eventually, we think we can get that to a 40% improvement over state-of-the-art graphite chemistries.”

“When it's a science project, you have to decide what you're going to measure yourself by. If you're Measuring yourself only by the result, then you will never take on something where you might fail. So, you know, you have to measure the inputs and the inputs a…”

“The thermodynamics said it was not impossible, which is all you have to know. Once you know, it's not impossible. It's really just a question of how long and how hard is it going to get.”

“So we have a supply agreement with Mercedes and they plan to bring us into their electric vehicle lineup. They say mid decade starting with the electric G wagon, the EQG.”
