We are Sila—a next generation battery materials company dedicated to accelerating energy transformation for a more sustainable future. 

Our next-gen anode material is the first significant chemistry improvement to lithium-ion batteries to reach the market in 30 years. Our silicon anode material is a simple drop-in replacement to graphite and significantly boosts the energy density of lithium-ion batteries without compromising performance. 

Today, Sila science powers innovative consumer electronics. Tomorrow, it will fuel our EV future and the electrification of everything. 

We work directly with leading consumer electronics and automotive OEMs to help accelerate product roadmaps, and partners with battery manufacturers commercial cell production. Our partners include BMW, Daimler, and ATL.

Sila Nano’s first products significantly increase the energy density of state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries. Our materials are manufacturable economically at scale and are drop-in replacements to existing battery manufacturing processes.

Using this Leap Day to look forward to our workforce training programs with Big Bend Community College and Columbia Basin Technical Skills Center, which is part of the Moses Lake School District. The foundation of a robust domestic #battery #supplychain rests on developing innovative #technologies and developing a strong pipeline of skilled workers. We’re proud to be a part of the national push to invest in U.S.-based, #cleanenergy  manufacturing jobs. Our VP of Operations, Chris Dougher, captures this notion perfectly: 

“Sila has always been focused on moving our breakthrough science and innovation out of the lab and into the real world, and this program is a clear extension of that. We’re helping create real jobs and real educational opportunities that will allow students to get the skills they need for the clean energy jobs of the future.” 

Battery Technology covers our plans for helping to train the future battery workforce in Moses Lake, as well as other initiatives spearheaded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and other government agencies.

It's not every day you get to moderate a roundtable discussion with a cabinet secretary, governor, and senator. What an honor to facilitate a wide-ranging conversation with Secretary Jennifer Granholm, Governor Jay Inslee, and Senator Maria Cantwell at Sila Nanotechnologies Inc.'s factory in Moses Lake, WA.

The discussion focused on how the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is accelerating investments and workforce development in the domestic battery supply chain, including Sila's $100M award from the Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains, U.S. Department of Energy, which enabled Sila's workforce training partnerships with Big Bend Community College and the Columbia Basin Technical Skills Center. Thanks to Big Bend President Sara Thompson Tweedy for your partnership.

The conversation also focused on how to accelerate the build out of new #transmission, which is necessary to support domestic manufacturing. Thanks to Richard Bustamante with Bonneville Power Administration and Richard Wallen with Grant County Public Utility District for working to develop solutions.

To achieve our clean energy future, we’re helping to train a new energy workforce today. We're excited and proud to officially announce a partnership with Big Bend Community College and Columbia Basin Technical Skills Center, which is part of the Moses Lake School District, to develop a first-of-its-kind education program geared towards training the future battery workforce. 

The program is focused on providing hands-on training for technical, mechanical, electrical, and software skills that will support students' success in careers related to manufacturing and material science, including at our silicon anode manufacturing plant. We’re honored to also be able to provide each school with one million dollars to support the cost of equipment and curriculum development.

We want to thank the President of Big Bend Community College Dr. Sara Thompson Tweedy, the Superintendent for Moses Lake School District Monty Sabin, and the Director of the Columbia Basin Technical Skills Center Christine Armstrong and their teams for an amazing partnership in moving this forward. We’d also like to thank Governor Jay Inslee, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Jennifer Granholm, and Senator Maria Cantwell for sharing in our news and for their participation in a community roundtable highlighting the strides and needs of the Moses Lake community as it develops into a hub for clean energy manufacturing. 

Big things are happening, and we’re just getting started!
