The Chicago-headquartered battery startup held a ribbon-cutting Friday for its new 17,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in the West Loop. At peak production, the facility aims to deliver 50 tons per year of silicon oxide, a key competent in batteries, including those that power electric vehicles.
NanoGraf Corp. is ready to make Chicago a battery capital for the entire United States. The Chicago-headquartered battery startup held a ribbon-cutting Friday for its new 17,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in the West Loop.
Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) praised NanoGraf as being the part of the next generation of innovative technology to come out of Chicago. NanoGraf Corp. is ready to make Chicago a battery capital for the entire United States.
“As a fully U.S. owned and operated company, we’re thrilled to play a pivotal role in creating new jobs and opportunities in Chicago.” The new headquarters has an expected material production capacity of 35 tons per year, enough for 24 million battery cells, which would be more than enough to fulfill all of the U.S. Military’s power needs.
“NanoGraf’s new manufacturing facility is a testament to our ongoing commitment to grow a robust, competitive domestic battery supply chain,” said Dr. Francis Wang, CEO of NanoGraf. “As a fully U.S. owned and operated company, we’re thrilled to play a pivotal role in creating new jobs and opportunities in Chicago.”
The nation hopes to reach 1 million passenger electric vehicles on the road by 2030 and 100% clean energy by 2050, according to Kristin Richards, director of the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.
