ONE’s hybrid battery pack combines the best aspects of two chemistries to deliver 600 miles of EV range

Charged EVs

Founded by Mujeeb Ijaz in July of 2020, the Michigan-based company recently closed a $65-million funding round led by BMW i Ventures. The challenge is that anode-free cells still have low cycle life. Did my undergrad at MIT and then PhD at Berkeley, pretty much all in energy technologies—solar, hydrogen storage for fuel cell vehicles.
