Project Complete: Pouch Cell Pilot Line delivered in Poznań, Poland.
We are proud to announce that PI-KEM Ltd has successfully completed our three-year project to deliver the largest Pouch Cell Pilot Line in Eastern Europe for Łukasiewicz – IMN | Centre for Electrochemical Energy Storage in Poznań, Poland - a major milestone for advanced battery research in the region.
Co-financed by Poland’s Ministry of Science and Higher Education, this unique R&D facility is the only one of its kind in Poland and among just a few in Europe, dedicated to next-generation lithium cell research, development, and prototyping.
From concept to completion, PI-KEM provided pre-project consultation, pre-installation guidance, and full on-site installation, together with our long-term partners MTI Corporation. The PI-KEM team (Fiona Rouse, Colin Rouse, Adam Gadsby, and Geoffrey Handley-Harrison), as well as engineers from MTI Corp. worked alongside Mariusz Walkowiak, Emilia Ciechanowicz, and Kamil Frączek to unpack, verify and commission the equipment.
Comprehensive onboarding training was delivered by Dr Hui Li and Andy Huang from MTI Corporation, and we had the pleasure of hosting Dr Jiang, President of MTI Corp at the site.
