ProLogium, a solid state battery specialist, and Mercedes-Benz have signed a technology cooperation agreement to develop next-generation battery cells.
The first test vehicles are expected to be introduced in “coming years”.
The companies also agreed on milestones that would enable integration of solid state battery technology into a range of passenger vehicles in the second half of the decade.
ProLogium focuses on the development of next generation batteries, including solid state with silicon anode, lithium metal anode and bipolar technology.
The company has 15 years of R&D and manufacturing experience.
Mercedes-Benz plans to go all electric by 2030 wherever market conditions allow.
