Tesla acquires battery expert in bid to make its own cells
Tesla appears to be pushing forward with plans to make its own battery cells. Electric Autonomy has discovered that Tesla quietly acquired Hibar Systems, a Canadian company with expertise in automated battery manufacturing for electrified vehicles, laptops and "similar products." It was recently working on a "high-speed" lithium-ion battery production system. It's not certain just when the purchase took place, but Tesla only listed Hibar as a subsidiary on October 2nd, and Hibar stripped its website down to a single page sometime after September 16th.
