Nano One awarded C
$5M contribution from NRCan to scale and commercialize One-Pot™ LFPFunding supports planned Candiac expansion, including LFP cathode materials development for ESS, defence, and EV markets
Government-backed support reinforces Canada's role in building LFP supply chain optionality
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / October 29, 2025 / Nano One® Materials Corp. ("Nano One" or the "Company")(TSX:NANO)(OTCQB:NNOMF)(Frankfurt:LBMB), a process technology company specializing in lithium-ion battery cathode active materials (CAM), is pleased to announce it has been awarded a C
"The Government of Canada is proud to support Nano One as they scale up their made-in-Canada battery innovation. At a time where the global demand for batteries is surging, their work could not be more important. We are showing the world how to build cleaner, more secure, and more sustainable supply chains. This patented technology, developed here at home, is helping position Canada as a global leader in the next generation of battery materials-proving that Canada can power the world."
- The Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources
The funding supports Nano One's ongoing work at its Candiac, Québec and Burnaby, British Columbia facilities through March 31, 2027. It will enable the Company to continue developing different product grades of One-Pot LFP to meet performance requirements across energy storage systems, defence, electric vehicles and other applications. Sumitomo Metal Mining is a project partner under this NRCan award and will contribute technical expertise as in-kind support.
The Candiac facility remains Nano One's launch pad for growth and a critical bridge between customer validation, first revenues, and demonstrating the technology in production-intent equipment to support future licensing opportunities. As a demonstration facility, Candiac will also support service revenues generated from licensee operator training, continuous process improvements, and product enhancement.
"This investment strengthens our path to commercialization and reinforces Canada's position as a leader in clean-technology manufacturing," said Dan Blondal, CEO of Nano One. "We're grateful to the Government of Canada for its continued support across multiple programs, including this NRCan contribution, which helps us de-risk scale-up, advance customer validation, and create long-term value for our shareholders on our path to commercial operations."
Strengthening North America's Battery Supply Chains
The project builds on existing funding support from the U.S. Department of Defense, Next Generation Manufacturing Canada (NGen), Investissement Québec (MEIE), and Technoclimat (MELCCFP). It aligns with G7 efforts to build resilient and diversified supply chains for critical minerals and battery materials-reducing reliance on single-country sources and reinforcing North American energy security.
The funding supports the next phase of Nano One's scale-up at its Candiac facility from 200 tpa to a minimum of 800 tpa with the flexibility to reach 1,000+ tpa to meet customer demand. It marks continued progress toward commercializing One-Pot LFP production and building localized capacity in line with government priorities for industrial resilience and supply-chain independence.
