NEO Battery Materials Ltd. ("NEO" or the "Company"), a low-cost silicon anode materials developer that enables longer-running, rapid-charging lithium-ion batteries, is pleased to appoint Mr. Ricky Lee, a renowned battery industry pioneer, as the Lead Managerial Advisor. Mr. Ricky Lee is a 35-year battery and energy industry executive with substantial experience with battery material and cell design, mass-production technology, and equipment & process development at globally distinguished companies.
NEO Battery Materials Ltd.(“NEO” 或 “公司”)是一家低成本硅阳极材料开发商,可实现更长时间运行、快速充电的锂离子电池。该公司很高兴任命著名的电池行业先驱Ricky Lee先生为首席管理顾问。Ricky Lee先生是一位拥有35年的电池和能源行业高管,在全球知名公司的电池材料和电池设计、批量生产技术以及设备和工艺开发方面拥有丰富的经验。
Throughout his career, Mr. Lee has served as the Senior Vice President and Chief of Process Engineering at several global Korean and Chinese battery cell manufacturers, including Samsung SDI (the 5th largest battery manufacturer), SK Innovation (the 6th largest battery manufacturer), and A123 Systems (one of the U.S.'s first LFP battery companies). He has also served as the Chief Executive Officer of international companies and was a member of the National Research Review Committee and the WPM Operations Committee.
在他的整个职业生涯中,李先生曾在多家全球韩国和中国电池制造商担任高级副总裁兼工艺工程主管,包括三星SDI(5第四 最大的电池制造商)、SK Innovation(第 6 家第四 最大的电池制造商)和A123 Systems(美国公司之一)是第一家 LFP 电池公司)。他还曾担任过国际公司的首席执行官,并且是国家研究审查委员会和WPM运营委员会的成员。
During his tenure at SK Innovation (currently SK On), he was the Vice President of the R&D Center and successfully launched large pouch cells for HEV, PHEV, and EVs in the U.S., Europe, and South Korea. Later, appointed as SK's battery factory manager, Mr. Lee improved the defect rate and productivity to achieve quality control of >99% per unit process. He was awarded by the South Korean Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy for enabling an industry-leading mass-production capability.
在SK Innovation(现为SK On)任职期间,他曾担任研发中心副总裁,并成功在美国、欧洲和韩国推出了适用于混合动力汽车、插电式混合动力汽车和电动汽车的大型软包电池。后来,李先生被任命为SK的电池工厂经理,提高了缺陷率和生产率,实现了每单位工序超过99%的质量控制。他因实现行业领先的批量生产能力而获得韩国贸易、工业和能源部的表彰。
At Samsung SDI, Mr. Lee was one of the first engineers to initiate large-scale battery cell production. Developing Samsung's first lithium-polymer battery, he led the R&D of polymer cylindrical and prismatic cells and headed the productivity improvement team to enhance profitability, process efficiency, and overall workflow. Previously at Samsung, Mr. Lee was a key developer of high-capacity nickel-zinc batteries that achieved a 200 KM driving range for Hyundai. In the mid-1990s, he pioneered the development of polymer-based solid-state batteries for lithium-ion applications.
在三星SDI,李先生是最早启动大规模电池生产的工程师之一。他开发了三星的第一款锂聚合物电池,领导了聚合物圆柱形和方形电池的研发,并领导了生产力改善团队,以提高盈利能力、流程效率和整体工作流程。李先生曾在三星任职,是大容量镍锌电池的主要开发者,该电池的续航里程为现代汽车实现了200公里。在1990年代中期,他率先开发了用于锂离子应用的聚合物基固态电池。
Mr. Spencer Huh, President and CEO of NEO, commented, "We are incredibly excited to have Mr. Ricky Lee join as the Lead Managerial Advisor. Creating one of Korea's first lithium-ion batteries to maximizing cell production efficiency, Mr. Lee's invaluable expertise and advice will enhance NEO's silicon anode development direction.
