Electrovaya Initiates Testing for Jamestown Cell Manufacturing Facility

Electrovaya Inc. has begun Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) for its automated lithium-ion cell assembly and formation equipment. This process occurs at the equipment manufacturing site. A team of around 10 Electrovaya staff members is on-site to oversee the testing and training processes. The focus is on commissioning and validating the equipment using production-grade materials.

According to Dr. Raj DasGupta, CEO, this initiative is crucial for ensuring a smooth startup at the Jamestown facility in New York. The team involved in the qualification process will continue supporting operations, emphasizing continuity and efficiency.

The FAT program is expected to conclude by early October 2026, after which the equipment will be transported to the Jamestown facility for installation. Additional commissioning activities will follow to ensure production readiness.
