Production at locations with high electricity prices—such as Germany—is, therefore, very high-cost. The Fraunhofer engineers want to change this. Our dry transfer coating process aims to noticeably reduce the process costs in electrode coating. BroadBit uses it to produce new types of sodium-ion batteries.
