Beyond the recently announced global framework agreement with CATL, BASF has also renewed its existing long-term cathode active materials (CAM) supply agreement with a third-party regarding supply from BASF's CAM plant in Schwarzheide, Germany.

BASF Battery Materials, through its joint venture BASF Shanshan Battery Materials Co., Ltd. (BSBM), has achieved a major milestone in next-generation battery technology. In collaboration with Beijing WELION New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., BASF has successfully delivered its first batches of mass-produced Cathode Active Materials (CAM) for Semi-Solid-State batteries – marking a significant step towards industrializing Solid-State batteries.
