Honda has announced that it will begin production of solid-state batteries in January 2025 .

The Japanese automaker is the only automaker to have a factory up and running in less than 2 months .

Honda 's factory is a demonstration line rather than a full-sized production factory.

Honda ’s roll-pressing technique increases the density of solid electrolyte layers, improving energy efficiency.

Honda has developed a way to prevent dendrites, thus allowing its solid-state batteries to last longer.

Dendrites are small, spiky lithium crystals that form when the lithium separates out of the various compounds inside the battery.

Unlike lithium-ion batteries, ASSBs are fairly heat resistant, so heat doesn’t damage them easily.

Honda aims to produce all battery-electric and fuel-cell vehicles by 2040 .

Solid-state batteries eliminate a lot of problems that keep EVs out of many people's garages.

SSBs' high tolerance for heat simplifies the problem of battery cooling.
