Rain Carbon Announces North American Innovation Center for Energy Storage Materials
Equipment installation is already underway, with the start-up of the demonstration facility scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2025.
"Our new R&D center is the natural, next step to bring together RAIN's battery materials and high-purity carbon businesses, which are well established in the energy storage materials sector in both Europe and Asia ," said Gerry Sweeney , President of RAIN. "Our R&D teams are already known as market leaders. We aim to combine these strengths with our long-standing presence in North America to use this new facility to expand our existing list of patents and to spring-board RAIN to an even higher, more-value-added level in the evolving energy storage space."
Dr. Michael Spahr , Vice President of Innovations in RAIN's Carbon Distillation & Advanced Materials business unit, expressed enthusiasm about this R&D investment, emphasizing: "We are thrilled to expand our global R&D and Energy Storage Materials expertise. This move reaffirms our dedication to the growing North American Energy Materials supply chain while maintaining our position as an innovator on a global scale."
