To be able to quickly adapt product designs, LoGrasso said, OEMs need a reduction in the wide range of cell formats and sizes. Partnerships between OEMs and cell manufacturers are critical to make this happen. Many different cell formats and sizes are being developed, all with trade-offs, he pointed out. Is this [convergence] possible?
