Nice to see American production ramping up.
Word
This is a boutique-size operation but yeah it’s good
but, what is Virgin source for Anode & Cathode , CHYNA.
@@markplott4820 In the first minute they state that "All materials are North American" so one would hope that means that the Lithium mines in North America are now operational and providing that if they're true to their word.
Best!
@@bob15479just expect a mega factory to pop up after we fell behind?
I was working in the plant the day Sandy came through. Pretty cool to see him in person after following for so long! We are kicking ass at ONE 🇺🇸🔋
Apparently Mujeeb was demoted since then. Is everything stable over there?
What's cool about Sandy?????
@@edwardr8826 It is quite common for the founder/thinker to become CTO to focus on next level of products and get a conversationalist to become CEO.
Company stock needs to go public.
@@edwardr8826The company could not close the 1B USD funding round. So the company is now in a cash crunch. As a consequence, Mujeeb was demoted to CTO and a new CEO came in: someone that is able to close some funding and in the mean time manage the cash crunch.
Kudos to ONE for the transparency in sharing this view into their production line. Keep up the great work Sandy!
I learned a lot from this video, thanks Munro and associates and the guest company guys.
Our pleasure!
Amazing and informational😊
It's too bad they're going to go out of business because no one is giving them a chance to even prove themselves... All these domestic state-supported battery firms in china, south korea and even europe now but in the US it's the "free market" that determines success. Look at Stellantis's battery business in Europe called "ACC" with no differentiating tech but lots of state-support and the korean gov is literally paying for their companies factory in North America now, it's a joke.@@MunroLive
Nice to see the full process of cell manufacture with no closed doors . Great video Sandy ,of real interest to green warriors all around this little ball in space .
One of the best Munro Live video's! Really enjoyed seeing how my (China) LFP battery was probably made. I agree with Sandy, LFP will take 90% of the automotive market, until something better comes along...
Nice to see manufacturing in the USA.
ONE is NOT Production.
@@markplott4820 It was pretty clear the existing factory is a pilot and large scale manufacturing begins next year. So it isn't production yet, however most people who watched the video understand that.
KUDOS to ONE for being so forward thinking, entrepreneurial and bringing back industry to North America!
Amazing tour. Makes me want to start my own battery factory! Thanks for the excellent video. LFP is the best answer to electrification problem.
Wishing the ONE team all the very best!
The money is in the lithium refining! There’s a built in customer base with all the established battery manufacturers as well as all the new startups
Pretty naive of you to think lithium battery manufacturing is so simple.
This video format of company visits is just awsome!
Love it!
Sandy - You are a founding father in modern EVs - thank you!
You Sandy, and youre team are like good teachers. I just love youre "school"
(hope my english is not to baad, Jag kan ju inte svara på svenska 😅)
The Best Wh. from Sweden.
When is our quiz? It was facinating. And the guy spoke so well nothing could be missed. Good video
Ijaz Mujeeb knows his stuff. That's the finest monologue, and question-answering on prismatic battery manufacture and design I've ever seen. No bollocks, no fluff, clear, concise and reasonably complete and much better engineering answers than you normally get from important people. I wish everyone was this well-informed and to the point! Thanks for getting this access Munro.
I am so excited to see America get back to manufacturing! Back in 2018 I went to China and toured for large battery manufacturing plants. One of them was the cylindrical format. The other three were the prismatic format. I have always preferred the prismatic format. The way they've designed that cell really impressed me. I think the layout and performance is going to outperform Teslas cylindrical cell format.
Prismatic is good for low power LFP applications. It's not great for high power applications because you can't get the heat out fast enough
@@saff226 There are prismatic formats with extremely high c ratings.
I was wondering about how they could cool this format as well, I love the shape and size but it seems like cooling could be a real problem.
@@cendrizzi the aluminum can or casing acts like a heat sink and wicks away the heat generated from the anode and cathode.
Tesla uses a few decades old technology in their batteries, it better would be overcame soon enough.
What an absolutely fantastic video! I love these behind-the-scenes of technology videos that you do.
This is were we're good! Make tools to help us to have better life quality! And that should be our main goal! Education to all! Imagine 7 billion brains focused on that instead of wars, religion, resources fights etc....we should be conquering Andromeda by now....
Awesome to see more companies getting into this space. Lfp is the way to go.
What a wonderful and informative tour. Can't wait for battery tech to upgrade our everyday lives (smarthphone, laptops, cars etc)
Ummm, NOT much innovation since 1890 w/ Lead Acid .
TESLA is LEADING the way in Battery cell Production, Lithium refining and Cathode all DONE in House.
its Possible TESLA wont need to do ANY Lithium mining.
Love to see a MI company helping to make the transition to electric!!!
I really like seeing the advances companies are making. Thanks for taking us on the road with you.
The older black car was spectacular and it's cool your passengers face each other instead of sitting behind...
Your factory videos are just plain excellent. You ask all the questions I'd want to ask. Thanks for doing them!
Luv it when it’s Sandy doing it. Nobody bullshits Sandy!
Awesome video - thank you! It's clear that lifetimes have gone into developing this battery technology, and also all the refinements, production equipment, and everything. As nice as the early 20th century cars are, it's good to know that we have made some progress since then. Best of luck to ONE.
I suspect you mean 21st century. Early 20th century transportation was mostly horse and buggy.
@@GntlTch No, The first electric cars were early 20th century. The restored cars that they raced were from the teens or 20s.
Excellent information! Kudos
Glad you enjoyed it!
A lot of good info. Interesting to see the individual roll-to-roll processes of coating the foils -- first I've heard that the copper foil+graphite needs to be compressed after drying to increase volumetric density. The gravimetric energy density statements seem a little vague though -- "as good as ternary but without the fire risk" could mean anything from 180wh/kg to 270wh/kg. And power density is important too, but at least they mentioned that with cooling plates both top and bottom they could reach 5C charging rate. Since discharge max rate is usually twice the max charge rate, does that mean these cells are 10C discharge ? That would be great for LFP if on par for energy density to ternary. A problem with BYD's Blade LFP is the low discharge rates that basically require very large heavy packs for decent HP. Usually higher discharge rate chemistry comes with a high weight penalty.
This was an awesome video and it’s so cool I’ve delivered a few pieces of equipment there to see what they were building and the fact to get a tour like this in a video what was really going on awesome. Ian, I was always hoping that some contractor would be working at Sandy’s shop. It need a piece of equipment and I can deliver it so I can just check out his shop in person. It must be pretty cool anyways thanks for the video awesome job guys.
I really like these videos. Thx to the Munro and O.N.E team for the video. Very insightful to see the progress and process in electric vehicle and infrastructure battery manufacturing in USA.
Great video! I just read an article from Electrek that ONE just laid off 25% of its 600 person workforce. Hopefully they will get some customers so they can stay in business.
battery business always end up dog eat dog
Way to go ONE and Sandy! Keep it up.
Wow, this guy has a detailed answer for everything.
Just wow to see the process of making this batteries 👍
Super impressive! Anytime a manufacturer is this transparent with their operations, you know they know they are industry leaders or soon to be! Well done.
You guys are killing it!
Thank you
Love you videos Sandy ,learning so much from your channel,I am a retired Windsor assembly worker and hope this brings lots of new jobs to Windsor and Michigan for the next generation of workers in both communities, I have been preaching to many of my friends about you and your channel,keep the videos coming
Very nice tour, informative and inspiring, so proud of the US batteries production ramping up. Ty Sandy.
The factories in Michigan now are next level, even in my woodsy part of the state... I am an operator for summer.. was crazy innovation and robotics doing most welding and presses now (shorts as proof)
When considering purchasing an electric vehicle (EV), a crucial question revolves around the longevity of the battery.
Tesla, manufacturer, claims their batteries should last for 300,000 to 500,000 miles or approximately 1,500 battery cycles.
However, it's noteworthy that Tesla's warranty for their batteries extends only up to 100,000 miles, providing no additional coverage beyond that point.
As of January 2022, Tesla's battery warranty typically covers up to 8 years or a specified mileage, commonly 100,000 miles or more, depending on the model.
@@AwesomeBlackDudeI don’t feel that’s noteworthy as no manufacture warranty’s through end of life. 100,000 miles should give any new buyer security that the batteries will last though their original ownership.
@@AwesomeBlackDude Seven to ten years but that is only because you studied outdated data ... prius and first gen tesla with fulltime use lasts seven to ten years. On average... but again battery tech is now upgrading yearly now... new tech, new efficiency etc.. as proven by creator (Batteries Undecided with Matt)
@@AwesomeBlackDude also using ai doesnt mean its correct
@@redtitan29he apparently got it from an Ai reply copypasted
This tour inside the factory is impressive and very enjoyable. Thank you for this video.
THANKS SANDY ,MUJEEB,AND MUNRO for sharing, an inside peek 🫣 into the future 🤗👍😎💚💚💚
Thanks for watching!
Excellent !! Bravo !! What a great presentation! You did an amazing job! I learned so much about the latest developments in battery technology.
Sandy is like a professor. His notoriety gains him access and he shares that access with the rest of us. This is great! ONE has built their plant in Warren, MI (GM's HQ)and they're using prismatic cells that look like they're about the size of GM's Ultium cells. They wouldn't be investing this much without an off-take agreement. Go ONE and go GM. It should bring dividends to everyone!
Great video Sandy, I particularly liked it when you pushed (very gently) with all your questions and clarifications. Good Job !
Thanks Sandy and Team. Suggestion: A video montage of EV battery development from past to present day. Followed up each year with the latest battery tech.
Great vid. Exciting to see the developments, and lots of gratitude to Mujeeb for all the info.
26:10 Looks like a ton of fun, love to see the progression of electrification of EV and everything. Very informative video...
Thank you for setting up this tour and showcasing American manufacturing.
I wish them success! So we can be proud of local manufacturing.
so great.. thanks for the information ... really appreciate learning and seeing this.
Anmazing battery technology. Thanks for sharing Sandy!
fantastic tour and information. thanks guys
Wow thanks for the tour , I certainly learned a lot !
😎👍🏻👍🏻
Great video, love to see manufacturing back in the US. These guy's at ONE are doing remarkable work.
On a side note, that handshake at the end had me dead 😂😂
love these guys
Very good guys!
I like this dude who is giving the factory tour.
Thank u and the person giving u the details❤
Really awesome to see a nice clean well organised battery factory.
In addition to the tech, I'm pretty amazed I'm able to actually understand what they are saying, and I'm not an engineer. That's part of the magic of these interviews.
Nice to see manufacturing coming back to North America Sandy! Aslo nice to see you having some fun! 👍🏻👍🏻
16:58 - “we make it thinner”
So, the 800v battery pack will need ~2x as much metal for the can, which means 800v will have slightly less battery jelly roll & more can metal in the same space. That is too bad, just to get some percentage faster charging.
Exactly that what I thought. So they lose capacity to save a couple minutes of charging.
Another Sandy Munro 'experience' in the electrification/production of energy storage. Every video expands the knowledge-base of understanding for the public. One day these videos will be recognized as the foundation of public acceptance for the new energy paradigm. Can't wait to see this gigafactory completed, and whenever that happens you can bet Sandy will be there🤩👍
Mujeeb does a great job of explaining the processes involved.
👍 Truly enjoyed. Truly impressive. Looking forward to more/updates.
Fascinating tour and loved the electric car race.;-)
Wife and I wound up out here last year on a sight- seeing drive and wondered what the heck this giant building was. I guess we know now. Good luck to them!
Love it. Keep up the great work!
Enlightening, thank you.
wow! thanks for sharing this content, pretty amazing stuff, loved the old electric cars
Great video. Thanks.
Thank you for this tour.
What a great detailed insight into how these types of cells are produced
Thanks for showing this.
You bet
I admire the diversity in this factory. Ideas from many cultures and people's to make a powerful, high density, safe battery pack
Great segment…great to see additional manufacturing added to America.
Awesome. Smart that they are also doing utility scale batteries, the demand is huge.
Fantastic work
Great job Sandy!!
So cool to see a factory tour! I used to sell mfg software and loved learning how things were made.
Very interesting.
Best of success for both!
geeking out, Thx Sandy!
This is an excellent video, much better than hearing about Tesla's all the time, the owner of this company is excellent and really knows his stuff, I enjoyed this, and it was nice to see all the automated machinery.
Fantastically informative. Thank you.
Awesome... I have been following them since they put their battery in a model S . I pray much success for this company... im looking to invest when available !
Great video
Well done
Thanks
Glad you liked it!
This is AWESOME!
It will be really interesting to see it their claims of similar energy density to nickel-cobalt cells hold true at scale. If it is true, they will surely be winning some contracts from companies looking to get that Inflation Reduction Act bump. Although, by the time they are at capacticy, there will likely be *many* manufacturers here in the US to compete with. Good luck to them!
Great vid with lots of very interesting detail.
Keeping an eye on this company...wow!!
Amazing video. Wish One the best. I have some old AA one cells from some years ago when I was designing microcontroller based charging circuits for IOT. But the net says ONE was formed in 2020 hmm? Fun stuff.
What a blessing to see the very best of American ingenuity, work ethic, and engineering, and right up to date and right up to speed. Now, in my dreams, I’d like to see American political culture showing the same level of good sense and application to the problems as showcased right here. Congratulations!
Great tour, keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
It's happening...
Thank You
Exciting stuff. It’s a great time to be a tech geek.
Really cool video. This video was a lot of fun. To watch.
Learned so much about things not even in my dreams while at Michigan Truck Plant in 1969.
What REALLY excites me from ONE Is the Gemini battery pack.
A Model S with one the same physical size as the stock pack went 750 miles on one charge.
In Michigan.
In December.
BMW put one in a. IX and It doubled the range.
With it, an EV could handle most holiday trips without needing to recharge.
December is not the coldest month in Michigan.
Very informative and fun to watch. Thanks
What a nice plant, quality product. Hope there will be a good progress on making lighter cells.
Looks like a cool factory! I wish them luck.
A great comment about 800v cutting charge times in half.
It just makes the peak charge higher, so it makes a steeper charge "curve" but the peak is actually a shorter period.
The parts of the curve at the very low end and high end are still the same input power.
awesome!
