Under the agreement, BMW will gain access to Solid Power’s battery research and development, cell design, and manufacturing expertise to expedite the technology alongside its partner. That being said, Solid Power isn’t licensing all of its technology.
BMW, an investor in Solid Power, already has an agreement to receive finished battery cells. Solid Power, which went public in December last year, is among a group of companies trying to create next-generation batteries for electric vehicles, aiming to solve some issues related to lithium-ion batteries that are currently is use.
This morning, Solid Power announced that long-time investor BMW Group is expanding an existing joint development agreement to license its technology in order to build its own solid-state batteries in Germany.
By gaining a license to Solid Power’s research and development, cell design, and manufacturing practices, BMW Group intends to duplicate Solid Power’s pilot production line at its own facility in Germany in order to produce prototype batteries cells of its own.
To do so, the BMW Group will develop innovative production processes and systems, which will then be installed at the 14,000 m² pilot plant. Using production processes and systems also employed in standard production, the company will be able to demonstrate the industrial feasibility of future battery cell generations.
REUTERS/Bob Strong Purchase Licensing Rights Dec 21 (Reuters) - Solid Power Inc (SLDP.O) said on Wednesday it will offer some intellectual property rights related to its solid-state batteries to BMW (BMWG.DE) and allow production of the battery cells at the automaker's facilities in Germany.

In 2021, Switzerland's photovoltaic (PV) installations increased to 685 MWp from 475 MWp in 2020. The Federal Energy Act, revised and effective from January 1, 2018, changed the support scheme for PV systems: it extended the one-time investment subsidy to all sizes of PV systems, ranging from 2 kW to 50 MW. Additionally, in 2022, the investment subsidy formula was updated to encourage investments in larger PV capacities and more efficient use of rooftop space. [pdf]
In Switzerland, the price paid for solar energy added to the grid varies widely, ranging from less than 4 cents to as high as 21.75 cents per kWh in 2022 in one canton alone. In 2022, Switzerland derived 6% of its electricity from solar power.
A Swiss start-up has created a containerized movable PV system that is designed to be easily relocated to allow the use of solar energy in locations where a fixed installation is not an option. The solution is based on a racking technology which can include two racks able to host up to 30 solar panels. The Triptic solar array. Image: PWR Station
Among the innovative solutions paving the way forward, solar energy containers stand out as a beacon of off-grid power excellence. In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the workings, applications, and benefits of these revolutionary systems.
Since April 2019, it also includes the potential of façades of 17 TWh. This potential is considered somewhat optimistic. A more detailed analysis estimates the Swiss roof-top PV potential to be 24 ± 9 TWh. Therefore, the potential of façades and others surfaces (parking, floating PV, ...) will probably need to be exploited.
Applications of PV in Switzerland are primarily roof-top grid-connected PV systems. Off-grid, ground-mounted, VIPV applications are still very scarce while an increasing number of building integrated and facade PV projects can be observed.
Comprising solar panels, batteries, inverters, and monitoring systems, these containers offer a self-sustaining power solution. Solar Panels: The foundation of solar energy containers, these panels utilize photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into electricity. Their size and number vary depending on energy requirements and sunlight availability.

Oman has committed to net zero emissions by 2050. The government is looking to expand its electricity-generation capacities through renewable independent. . Green hydrogen, solar IPPs, wind, and solar power projects are leading sub-sectors in Oman’s renewable energy sector, and they have created opportunities. . Oman’s state-owned entities are set to issue tenders, presenting opportunities for existing providers of clean energy technology and financiers of large. [pdf]
In October 2022, MEM unveiled a Green Hydrogen Strategy and announced the formation of Hydrogen Oman (Hydrom), a subsidiary of state-owned Energy Development Oman, to oversee development in the sector. Oman is targeting $140 billion of investment in the green hydrogen industry and hopes to achieve production of 1 million tons per year by 2030.
PWP about to finalise a strategic study which identified the most optimun generation mix for Oman up to 2040. For the next Solar PV IPP PWP exploring the options to include a small scale BESS; co-located with the PV Plant. The main purpose is for frequency control and to inccrease the plant availability during the ramp-up and ramp down moments.
Commercial operations of Oman’s largest utility-scale solar photovoltaic, independent power project, Ibri 2, started in January 2022. Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) awarded the project to a consortium of Saudi and Kuwaiti firms, for which Beijing-based Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) loaned $60 million.
The Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Information Technology (MTCIT) announced in its 2023 plan that Oman will phase out fuel-operated vehicles and ensure that 79 percent of vehicles in the country by 2035 are electric. According to the ministry’s estimates, Oman will have at least 22,000 new electric vehicles (EV) by 2040.
