Microvast Holdings Inc MVST shares jumped over 40% in premarket after it announced a breakthrough in its True All-Solid-State Battery (ASSB) technology. Technical analysis shows strong support for the stock performance.
What Happened: Unlike conventional batteries, Microvast’s ASSB eliminates liquid electrolytes, enabling high-voltage operation and simplifying system architecture.
“Our solid-state battery innovation represents a significant leap forward in addressing real-world safety and efficiency challenges,” stated CEO Yang Wu.
The press release lists the new battery’s key features, which include enhanced safety and efficiency along with bipolar stacking architecture, which helps achieve high voltages unattainable by liquid-based batteries. The proprietary all-solid electrolyte separator in the battery ensures conductivity and structural stability.
Why It Matters: Microvast’s ASSB technology is poised to transform various sectors according to the company. This technology will be helpful in data centers, electric vehicles, and advanced robotics, as it offers customized solutions with high energy density and improved safety.
