Episode 27 | Battery Design from an OEM Perspective | Brian Dillard

We've spent a lot of time during this podcast series talking to businesses developing the next generation of battery technology. In this episode, we switch perspectives to that of the OEMs, the car makers.  How do they determine which battery electrochemistry to adopt. What are the main pain points OEMs are looking to overcome and when you're planning well into the future how is the electrochemistry landscape changing?   Speaker Notes: Brian Dillard, Head of Battery R&D https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-dillard-961261/   Show Notes: The Battery Technology Podcast is sponsored by Munters - Global leaders in energy-efficient air treatment and climate solutions. https://www.munters.com/en/   Vaisala - Accurate moisture and concentration measurements for battery manufacturing upstream, midstream and downstream operations. www.vaisala.com/battery   The Gigafactory & Battery Technology Expo | Huntsville | AL | June 2025 Connecting the whole battery supply chain in the heart of the Battery Belt.
