～Developing the next generation Battery for e-Mobility～
Musashi Seimitsu Industry Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture, President and CEO: Hiroshi Otsuka, hereinafter referred to as "Musashi") is pleased to announce that it has made a strategic investment in BEI Lab Corporation (Headquarters: Sangnok-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea, Founder & CEO: Josiah (Changdeuck) Bae, hereinafter referred to as “BEI Lab”). Musashi and BEI Lab will develop the next generation battery for 2-wheel EVs applications.
BEI Lab possesses proprietary technology to suppress the generation of dendrites (substances that hinder battery performance), which are the cause of deterioration in lithium-ion batteries, and the effectiveness of this technology has already been confirmed at Musashi. Musashi has electrode technology that maximizes the characteristics of Hybrid Supercapacitors. By using both companies’ technologies, we target the development of high-performance batteries for Small e-Mobility with larger capacity and longer life.
Through this collaboration, Musashi aims to increase the value we provide to Small e-Mobility, particularly in India, Southeast Asia, and Africa, contributing to the realization of a harmonious and sustainable global society where people and the environment coexist in balance.
