This is big news and deserves more than a naked link. The 10-K is out folks. This is a first step to getting back to regular trading. Here's one excerpt...

4FQ21 COUV Annual 10-K

We are focused on energy storage applications, which have a stringent set of requirements for super capacitor butour super capacitor technology also has applicability in other large and growing markets such as frequency response and fast recovery storage. Supercapacitors are best used when you need energy fast.

We will continue developing our C-ion super capacitor carbon-ion technology with the goal of beginning transfer to commercial production in the first half of 2025. We have evaluated each of the elements required for initial success and calculated the high performance which we expect from their combination. We are now working to combine and optimize all components of the cell. We will then further develop volume manufacturing processes to enable high volume manufacturing and minimize manufacturing costs.

We are looking to raise funds that will enable us to expand and accelerate research and development activities and undertake additional initiatives. As well as continuing to develop our scientific and engineering capabilities iat Milton Park Abingdon England, we will use third party pilot lines, to achieve our goal of being prepared to begin the transition to high volume manufacturing capability from 2025.

We intend to work closely with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) to make our cells widely available over time.
We recognize that our super capacitor technology has applicability in other large and growing markets including energy storage and other electricity grid type environments such a frequency response. We expect that the heavy transport industries such a shipping, trains, planes and nascent infrastructure charging will also feature.

Our technology enables a variety of business models. In addition to joint ventures, we may look to operate solely-owned manufacturing facilities or license technology to other manufacturers. Where appropriate, we may sell know how, electrodes or other subassemblies rather than complete super capacitor cells. We intend to continue to invest in research and development beyond Gen 4.0 to improve super capacitor cell performance, improve manufacturing processes, and reduce cost subject to having raised sufficient funds to do this.

Carbon-Ion was founded to develop a new class of energy storage device with considerable functional improvements over commercially available supercapacitors or ‘ultracapacitors’.
