Commercial timeline and remaining steps

Management at the J.P. Morgan conference said all-solid-state batteries are likely to reach initial small-fleet production in the 2029 to 2030 period and into the early 2030s, meaning suppliers must qualify well in advance. It framed the completion of the Colorado continuous-flow project, execution of the Korea joint venture, ISO 9001 certification and new partnership announcements as key milestones. ISO 9001 Stage 1 audit was completed in Q2 2026, with Stage 2 targeted for Q3 and full certification expected by year-end, per the Investing.com transcript. 5

Solid Power said it expects to shift its revenue mix from collaboration payments toward electrolyte sales over the next one to two years, and that licensing is no longer expected to be a major portion of future revenue, a change from earlier expectations, according to MarketBeat's August report. While electric vehicles remain the principal target, management cited growing interest from humanoid robotics, mining, aviation and defence markets, noting that humanoid applications still have duty-cycle requirements to prove out. 45

With the October announcement, the immediate remaining steps for Mobius are completion of full site acceptance testing, expected by the end of October, followed by plant validation and operational start-up planned for the fourth quarter of 2026. Production on the line has not yet begun, and the company's stated capacity figures are forward-looking expectations tied to successful commissioning. 213
