New Delhi: Ola Electric Ltd is in talks with several global and domestic automakers to supply lithium-ion cells and battery packs from its Krishnagiri gigafactory, according to people familiar with the matter, as the company looks to expand beyond captive demand for its electric scooters.
The Bengaluru-based company currently operates India's only functioning gigafactory, with 6 GWh of installed capacity. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ola Cell Technologies, the company has commercially deployed its 4680-format Bharat Cell at scale, becoming the only company after Tesla Inc. to do so.
