about octillion

Octillion Energy Holdings, Inc is a leading value chain enabler for electric vehicle, or EV, battery systems in China, with operations in India and the United States. We primarily design, manufacture, and sell tailor-made battery systems for EVs and, to a lesser extent, energy storage solutions and battery management systems, or BMS. By June 30, 2023, our battery systems have powered over a million EVs in China.

As a differentiated solutions provider, we provide unique values to downstream and upstream EV value chain players. For EV OEMs, our major customers, we function as a one-stop-shop of competitive and tailored EV battery systems with a broad repertoire of battery cells that also enables market-leading safety, cost and time-to-market standards.

Our Mission

Electric mobility and battery storage are changing the fundamentals of how we live: how we move our families, how our purchases are delivered and how we power our homes. Our mission is to provide state-of-the-art battery solutions that meet this challenge for a seamless transition to a zero-emission lifestyle.

Our Capabilities

A leading EV battery system supplier in China

We are a pioneer and leader in the development of competitive EV battery systems in China offering customized and consistently high quality products to our customers since 2011. In 2022 we were ranked as the third largest EV battery system provider for passenger vehicles in China by shipment unit with a market share of 9.6% according to the F&S Report. In 2022 ,our battery systems powered approximately one in ten BEVs and approximately one in two entry-level A 00 and A 0 size passenger BEVs in China, according to the F&S Report.

Industry-leading engineering, design and development capabilities

EDD is pivotal to our success. Equipped with an innovative mindset, we have developed extensive proprietary technologies that allow us to offer EV battery systems with both cylindrical and prismatic battery cells at market-leading safety and cost standards. Our commitment to EDD is further evidenced by our large patent portfolio. As of June 30, 2023, we possessed 122 utility patents, 637 design patents and 17 software copyrights. Our patents cover multiple key battery system technologies, including liquid-cooling systems, battery thermal runway detecting systems, thermal management modules, battery safety monitoring systems, and overcharging prevention techniques.

Strong partnerships with downstream and upstream players within the EV value chain

We have strived to develop strong partnerships with EV OEMs and battery cell manufacturers since we were founded. Our proven track record of delivering differentiated and customized EV battery systems has strengthened our partnerships with customers and enhanced customer reliance. As of June 30, 2023, we had designed EV battery systems for 116 EV OEM customers and maintained close business relationships with 23 battery cell manufacturers, including 13 of the top 15 PRC battery players by shipment volume in 2022 according to the F&S Report. These extensive partnerships place us in a unique position within the EV value chain that is hard to replicate and serve as a significant entry barrier to potential competitors. In 2022, we had a 9.6% share of the passenger BEV market in China, according to the F&S Report. We believe we will continue to capture a significant portion of the large and fast-growing EV market.

Experienced and committed management team backed by strong investor base

Our highly experienced leadership team is anchored by deep technical expertise. In addition, we are backed by a strong investor base, which includes highly sophisticated, established and reputable venture capital and private equity funds based in the United States, China, Korea and other jurisdictions.
