, represents a crucial move toward bringing this advanced battery technology to market, offering greater energy density, enhanced safety, and extended driving range compared to standard lithium-ion batteries.

According to the deal,

will provide its sulfide-based solid electrolyte to Samsung SDI, which will use the material in battery cells to be tested by BMW. These cells will undergo performance assessments and be considered for use in a demonstration vehicle. Since 2009, BMW has worked closely with Samsung SDI and described the new partnership as a "major momentum" boost for its battery innovation, as reported by The Korea Herald. John Van Scoter, CEO of Solid Power, told that the alliance is designed to accelerate the adoption of ASSB technology by combining the partners' strengths in materials science, battery production, and automotive engineering. The joint effort by Samsung SDI and BMW to validate ASSBs was also highlighted by .

This partnership fits into a wider industry movement toward safer and more efficient energy storage. All-solid-state batteries use solid electrolytes instead of flammable liquids, lowering the risk of thermal runaway and allowing for lighter, more compact battery designs. Go Joo-young, Executive Vice President at Samsung SDI, said the company intends to "lead the way in commercializing ASSB" through global partnerships, according to The Korea Herald. Martin Schuster, Vice President at BMW, noted that the collaboration highlights BMW's dedication to providing customers with the latest battery innovations, as reported by

The market responded positively to the news, with retail investors on platforms such as

calling the agreement "massive" and forecasting additional gains for Solid Power's stock. Earlier in the week, the stock had experienced volatility, including a 7.4% decline due to mixed analyst opinions and missed earnings, as noted by . Over the past year, Solid Power's shares have soared 345%, according to InvestingPro, as the company continues to develop its electrolyte-centered business strategy.

This collaboration also highlights the intensifying global race in the EV battery industry. SK On, a Samsung affiliate, recently revealed it has set up a solid-state battery pilot line with Solid Power, as reported by

. Meanwhile, competitors like QuantumScape are also growing their partnerships, such as expanding their agreement with Volkswagen's PowerCo to speed up the commercialization of solid-state batteries, according to a .

Solid Power is set to announce its third-quarter 2025 financial results on November 4, which could shed more light on the financial impact of this partnership, according to a
