Project Description: These funds will support the build-out of a 600,000-square-foot factory housed in Moses Lake, Washington, that will produce breakthrough lithium-ion anode materials. The project is expected to begin production of Silas proprietary silicon anode material in 2025, with full production of 20 gigawatt-hour (GWh) equivalent of material at the projects conclusion in 2026. Sila will build out the factory to full capacity across its 160-acre campus, producing enough materials to power 200,000 electric vehicles (EVs), making Silas plant the largest silicon anode production facility in the world. Automaker Mercedes-Benz will be the first commercial customer served by the Moses Lake facility, as the company has selected Silas anode materials to power its electric vehicles, starting with the G-Class series, due to be released mid-decade.
