Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Slash Energy Consumption Costs while Safeguarding the Planet
Q: Can you tell us a bit more about the technology, then, and what it's doing, how it's working to do all this?
Halsall explains that the fan uses a unique design based on Nikola Tesla's engine principles to achieve even air distribution, which stabilizes temperature while promoting energy efficiency.
Dragonfly Energy & Dry Electrode Battery Manufacturing
Q: How do you see the Inflation Reduction Act impacting your operations?
We have some exposure to the tax credits for battery pack assembly, but our primary focus remains on innovating and competing without relying heavily on subsidies.
Dragonfly Energy & Dry Electrode Battery Manufacturing
Q: What challenges are you facing in scaling your technology?
We face capital constraints and economic headwinds that require us to focus on profitability while also attempting to raise funds to deploy our technology.
Dragonfly Energy & Dry Electrode Battery Manufacturing
Q: Can you talk about how your dry electrode process compares to Tesla's?
Unlike Tesla's high shear extrusion process, we apply a powder coating directly to the foil, which we found to have better adhesion and can simplify scaling.
Dragonfly Energy & Dry Electrode Battery Manufacturing
Q: What led you to transition from academia to the private sector with Dragonfly Energy?
I wanted to be more involved in technology commercialization due to frustrations in academia; I transitioned to business to move things faster and took an MBA to do it right.
