Group14 Technologies, the world’s largest global manufacturer and supplier of advanced silicon battery materials, is shipping its SCC55 material, produced from an EV-scale joint venture (JV) factory based in Sangju, South Korea.
Group14 has completed shipments to more than 100 electric vehicle (EV) and consumer electronics (CE) battery manufacturing customers worldwide from the JV factory.
This month, the first shipments of SCC55 from the joint venture factory were delivered to battery manufacturers responsible for supplying over 95% of the world’s battery production, as well as to leading automakers and CE companies.
Battery manufacturers are using these initial volumes to continue their qualification of SCC55 for adoption into several commercial EV and CE programs, which are anticipated to begin hitting the market in 2025. Group14 has been supplying SCC55 to more than 100 customers from its initial production factory (BAM-1) in Woodinville, WA, operational since 2021. SCC55 produced at BAM-1 is already in over two million smartphones.
Designed and constructed according to Group14’s modular manufacturing technology, the JV factory has an initial annual capacity of 2,000 tonnes of SCC55, equivalent to 10-gigawatt-hours—enough to power roughly 100,000 to 250,000 electric vehicles per year.
Group14 formed the joint venture with SK Inc. in July 2021 to accelerate the global production of silicon batteries as well as offer localized production, greater product security, and improved global battery supply chain resiliency to manufacturers and OEMs.
Today, commercial shipments from Group14’s BAM-1 factory in North America and the joint venture factory in Asia establish Group14 as the first and only advanced silicon battery materials manufacturer to offer dual sourcing, a critical prerequisite for suppliers to the automotive industry. Group14’s BAM-2 factory site in Moses Lake, Washington—designed to be the largest of its kind in the world—is expected to add another 4,000 tonnes of capacity in 2025, bringing the combined annual capacity for SCC55 material to more than 30 gigawatt hours.
