NGK's Ultra-Thin EnerCera Batteries Featured on Japanese Television

On December 21st, Japanese television, Nikkei Channel Local Business Satellite showcased NGK's EnerCera batteries as the future of batteries.

Iwao Owada, Vice President in charge of Global Business Creation, Corporate NV Creation, shared insightful comments about EnerCera during the program.

The spotlight of the program was on a demonstration experiment employing EnerCera for temperature management in logistics while transporting Japanese sake from Akita Prefecture to Singapore.


EnerCera, with its remarkable ultra-thin and compact design, holds promise for diverse applications as a secondary battery, enhancing quality assurance in logistics.

With an operating temperature ranging from -40°C to 105°C, EnerCera contributes to temperature management in cold regions and harsh environments.

For those interested, the program can be viewed online (in Japanese).
