Saint Jean Carbon (SJL) is on track to have its Guelph-based battery R&D facility operational by November.

The facility will be operated by the company’s recently acquired subsidiary, Solid Ultrabattery.

All building permits have been approved by the city.

Battery prototype equipment, which has been in ocean transit for several weeks, has arrived in Canada and is en route to Guelph.

The company has also advanced its solid-state battery provisional patents to the national phase in the U.S., Canada and Europe.

It’s currently conducting prototype building and testing through third parties before pilot builds can be transferred over to the Guelph facility.

Dr. Zhongwei Chen, Director of Saint Jean Carbon, stated,

“We are very excited at the prospect of having full battery prototyping capabilities at our Guelph research facility. This arrangement will enable us to rapidly develop our intellectual property unique to our solid electrolyte battery designs. I am looking forward to seeing this operation ramp up and develop battery products that compete globally in the energy storage markets.”

Saint Jean is a carbon science company with interests in energy storage and green energy creation and re-creation.

Saint Jean Carbon (SJL) is unchanged trading at $0.15 per share as of 9:30 am ET.
