Natron Energy has developed an innovative energy storage technology that uses sodium-ion cell containing Prussian blue electrodes. They are developing high-risk and potentially disruptive new technologies that align with ARPA-E’s mission of promoting energy efficiency, supporting U.S.

where they and their manufacturing partners produce and assemble their ARPA-E-funded technologies.

All three teams have manufacturing sites in the U.S. SCALEUP awardees Natron Energy, LongPath Technologies, and Finwave Semiconductor are all crossing this ‘scaling gap’ from the lab to the commercial marketplace. The goal of SCALEUP is to translate the performance achieved at the lab-and bench-scale to commercially viable and scalable versions of the technology. This year, we have decided to take a deep dive with three SCALEUP 2019 teams as they have gotten into full swing with scaling their manufacturing processes. Today, ARPA-E is celebrating Manufacturing Day! Manufacturing Day is an opportunity for manufacturers to give folks a behind-the-scenes look into their manufacturing processes and how they have adapted in the modern era. The leaves are changing, the crisp Autumn air is arriving, and with it, the holidays! One holiday we are particularly excited about celebrating here at ARPA-E may not be on your radar.
