Nano One is hosting our luncheon at the Hess Club on Tuesday, February 12th. I am extremely interested in the power storage market and this is something that should draw your attention.
Last week, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) made headlines when it acquired San Diego-based ultra-capacitor and battery maker Maxwell for $218 million at a share price of $4.75 — a 56% premium to the company's previous valuation of $140 million.
While Maxwell is primarily known for manufacturing ultra-capacitors, Tesla's interest was more focused on its new acquisition's dry electrode technology to use in Li-ion battery cells.
One of the greatest advantages Maxwell's dry electrodes bring to the equation is a much higher capacity retention rate.
Its batteries have proven to retain as much as 90% of their capacity through 1,500 charge cycles, a marked improvement over Tesla's existing battery arrays.
