Charged EVs | NGen invests $29.7 million in five new Canadian EV manufacturing projects 

Manufacturing innovation cluster Subsequent Technology Manufacturing Canada (NGen) is investing C$40 million ($29.7 million) in 5 new superior manufacturing tasks involving 10 firms below its Electrical Car Manufacturing Worth Chain Program.

One of many pairs is battery supplies developer Nano One Materials {and professional} providers firm Worley Chemetics, which can obtain C$2.8 million.

Nano One is growing the method to supply extra streamlined, inexpensive and fewer energy-intensive cathode energetic supplies (CAM) for lithium-ion batteries. Nano One and Worley Chemetics plan to make use of the NGen funding to advance their strategic alliance introduced in Might 2024 to develop, market and promote CAM facility packages. The 2 firms plan to supply gear—tanks, reactors, furnaces and kilns—for Nano One’s One-Pot cathode expertise course of at Worley’s alloy fabrication store in Pickering, Ontario.

The method engineering design package deal will embody mental property rights, stream sheets, detailed engineering, the operational know-how and proprietary gear together with reactors and kiln parts that might be supported by NGen.

Chemetics will assist Nano One in figuring out the very best supplies and fabrication strategies for the gear required, in addition to engineering and delivering the expertise.

“NGen backing Worley Chemetics’ collaboration with Nano One will speed up the industrial trajectory of the One-Pot course of,” stated Laura Leonard, Worley’s Group President of Know-how Options. “The quickest path to internet zero is to standardize or as we’re doing with Nano One, design one, construct many.”
