Graeme Purdy, the Chief Executive Officer of Ilika PLC says that Ilika PLC is making progress with its operations. Ilika PLC is also getting some success with selling its products. This is a deal for Ilika PLC because the company is moving from just developing its products to actually making and selling them. Ilika PLC has given some updates recently that show the company is really making progress, with its two technologies, Stereax and Goliath. This means that Ilika PLC is becoming a company that people can trust to make better energy storage products. Ilika PLC is a company based in the United Kingdom that specializes in making solid-state batteries.

Ilikas Stereax solid-state batteries are now being delivered to customers again. This is a deal for Ilika. They were able to move their technology to a manufacturing partner called Cirtec Medical in the United States. Now Ilika is shipping batteries to customers again. This means customers can start testing and putting the batteries into their systems.

The Stereax batteries are really important for things, like devices, industrial equipment and Internet of Things devices. For these things it is really important that the batteries are reliable, small and last a time. Ilikas Stereax solid-state batteries are made for these kinds of applications.

Ilika has done something. They got their big order for Stereax electrodes and they will make these electrodes at their facility in the UK. This is a start for the Stereax platform because it means Ilika will start getting money from it regularly. It is like Ilika is moving from making prototypes to actually selling Stereax electrodes. The money they get from this is not a lot now but the people in charge of Ilika think this is the first step, to making a lot more money in the future with Stereax electrodes.

Ilika is working on its Goliath solid-state battery programme, which’s really important for electric vehicles and things that need a lot of energy. They are making progress with the Goliath programme. The company has finished getting feedback from customers for the 2 Ah and 10 Ah Goliath cells. People who have tested these cells say things about them. One big customer, who is very important in the industry thinks Ilika is one of the companies in the world for making solid-state batteries. Ilika and its Goliath solid-state battery programme are doing well. The Goliath programme is a part of Ilikas work, on solid-state batteries.

The company is still working on making things better. They want to make their products work well and make sure they can make a lot of them. They also want to make products that customers really need. The 10 Ah Goliath cell is a deal for them. It is like a test to see if what they did in the lab will actually work in cars. The 10 Ah Goliath cell is important because it helps the company see if they can make things that work well in the world not just in the lab. The company is using the 10 Ah Goliath cell to make sure their products are good enough, for customers.

Purdy is being very careful with the way Ilika is doing things. Ilika is focusing on doing things rather than trying to grow too quickly. They want to make sure their customers are happy their partners are, on the page and their technology is reliable. This makes sense because making solid-state batteries is an expensive process. Ilika is prioritising these things because solid-state battery commercialisation is an undertaking that requires a lot of money and technical expertise.

Overall, Ilika’s operational updates point to a company transitioning carefully but decisively from R&D to early commercial delivery. With first revenues emerging, manufacturing partnerships in place, and growing customer confidence, Ilika enters 2026 focused on converting technical leadership into sustainable long-term growth.
