This is also expressed in the collaborations and partnerships with Fraunhofer Institute ISIT, Exentis Group AG, and selected international research facilities. We dedicate our expertise, entrepreneurship, and ingenuity to an idea bigger than us: inventing sustainable energy storage solutions that benefit the planet and the people for the prosperity of society and industry alike. Backed by 400+ committed private and institutional investors, we have made great strides becoming a global player for sustainable energy storage.
