We dive into the company’s mission to solve key battery development challenges using white-box battery modelling, and unpack how their powerful platform, The Voltt, enables engineers to accelerate battery design, improve performance and reduce development time by up to 70 per cent. From real-world applications in high-performance automotive projects to partnerships with major OEMs, this conversation covers the role of data-driven battery simulation in electric vehicles, energy storage, aerospace and beyond. We also discuss industry-wide challenges such as battery engineering skill shortages, evolving chemistries like solid-state and sodium-ion, and how digital twin technology is shaping the future of sustainable battery innovation, lifecycle analysis and recycling. Perfect for anyone interested in battery technology, EV innovation, and the future of clean energy systems.</p>","author_name":"Louise Creasy"}
