As part of the deal, the two companies have entered into a joint development and supply agreement for capacitor products based on PolyCharge's NanoLam technology.

With MHI's expertise and investment, we are poised to bring next-generation capacitor solutions to the electrification market," says Steven Yializis, chief operating officer of PolyCharge.

This joint development and supply agreement serves as a testament to our commitment to delivering cutting-edge technology and unparalleled expertise as a world-leading industrial group." 

PolyCharge expects that the agreement will act as a foundation to encourage collaboration and integration on next-generation capacitor products for electrification applications, especially those tailored for MHI's future electrification projects.
