freyr battery should look into the new graphene- aluminum solar cell technology which has more output per cell. a 20% increase in power and more durable than conventional solar panel and less stress on the panel. and cheaper to produce and 5x lighter than traditional solar panel.

In reply to Ton Jopham. Our government doesn’t nationalize private enterprises. Freyr is more than capable of evaluating the value and profitability of the Trina purchase.

Trina realizes Trump will inevitably nationalize their plant so they are dumping it. They will probably get minimal IP from the agreement only because of the visibility, but I’m not sure that matters because the Topcon IP is showing it’s weaknesses anyway per the latest PVEL scorecard. Maybe trump can make a deal with Mexico to extract the battery cell production IP from Mexico next

“The company also announced it has terminated its battery technology license with 24M Technologies, but no further news was released on its potential Georgia battery factory.”

Interesting, 24M has been supplying materials to Kyocera for their residential Enerezza BESS units since right around 2020-2021. One has to ponder, what this means for FREYR and 24M, was this mutual or does FREYR have something else in the works it thinks will be better than 24M? Some articles online seem to pose a substantial investment in company Aleees LFP chemistry. This seems to suggest FREYR will pivot to Aleees LFP CAM and away from 24M slurry battery technology.
