On December 19, Chongqing Talent New Energy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as " Talent New Energy") and Narada officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement for solid-state batteries. The signing ceremony was attended by Gao Xiang, Chairman of Talent New Energy, Wang Junxi, Vice President, Zhu Baoyi, Chairman and President of Narada, and Yu Jianhua, Vice President of the Domestic Marketing Center. The agreement was signed by Li Yan, CEO of Talent New Energy, and Xiang Jiayuan, Vice President and Chief Engineer of Narada, on behalf of both companies.

According to the agreement, both parties will leverage their respective research and development platforms and collaborate on key projects to integrate their leading technological research capabilities. They will jointly engage in related technology R&D and industrialization efforts to promote innovation, technological application, and product iteration of solid-state batteries.

Additionally, both parties will fully utilize their respective resource advantages, industry strengths, and industrial advantages to drive collaboration through independent planning, industrial driving, and resource exchange, thereby promoting the large-scale application of solid-state batteries in energy storage and consumer sectors.

Narada began its work on solid-state battery development in 2017 and undertook the Zhejiang Province Solid-State Battery Key R&D Program in 2020. The company pioneered the electrolyte sandwich structure design and in-situ membrane formation technology for electrodes, solving the "solid-solid interface" challenge. This has accelerated the large-scale application of all-solid-state batteries. In the future, Narada will continue to develop and produce solid-state batteries with higher capacities and densities to meet the demands of more new energy application scenarios.

Talent New Energy focuses on the R&D, manufacturing, and sales of solid-state batteries and key materials, with patent growth that leads the industry. Its proprietary technology has successfully solved common challenges in the solid-state battery industry, such as the difficulty of large-scale mass production, low yield rates, and high bulk loading costs, positioning the company as one of the most likely to achieve large-scale commercialization of solid-state batteries.

This strategic cooperation will help Narada closely connect the upstream and downstream resources of the solid-state battery industry chain, deepen industry cooperation, promote ecosystem integration, and accelerate the industrialization process, seizing the development opportunities of solid-state batteries.
