Participation in trade shows such as InterBattery 2020 is key to establishing confidence among customers and in the market, and is a major contributor to the progress of battery-powered industries. SK Innovation\u2019s InterBattery 2020 strategy is similar to the company\u2019s \u201cSK inside\u2019 strategy unveiled at CES 2020: to establish SK batteries as the market standard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Nanum Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;\">Accordingly, SK Innovation chose the slogan \u201cSafer than ever, Faster than ever, Longer than ever\u201d for the show, during which SK Innovation\u2019s next-generation battery vision is unveiled.

To date, none of its customer \u2013 either of EVs or ESS \u2013 has experienced any battery fire. Through InterBattery 2020, SK Battery intends to position itself as the most trusted name in battery safety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Nanum Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;\">Charging speed is considered one of the biggest technical hurdles that EVs must overcome. Addressing this problem, SK Innovation is currently developing technology that will make the round-trip journey between Seoul and Busan possible with just two 10-minute charges. The company expects development to be completed by the end of this year or within the first half of next year at the latest. The technology is expected to vastly improve battery utilization, and to promote the popularization of EVs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Nanum Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;\">On the first day of the exhibition, President of SK Innovation&#8217;s Battery Business Jee Dong-seob visited the booth and said, \u201cThe features of SK Innovation&#8217;s products seem to be introduced quite well.\u201d He added, \u201cWe will promote the business while putting safety of the battery as the top priority, and focusing on improving driving range, charging speed and extending battery life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2272\" src=\"https:\/\/askinno.com\/global\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/201022_\uc778\ud130\ubc30\ud130\ub9ac_\uc774\ubbf8\uc9c0_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1180\" height=\"268\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<span style=\"font-family: 'Nanum Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">\u25b2 (Left) President of SK Innovation\u2019s Battery Business Jee Dong-seob (left) and Head of Battery Marketing Division Kim Yoo-suk (right) \/ (Right) President of SK Innovation\u2019s Battery Business Jee Dong-seob with press and staff inside SK Innovation\u2019s booth at InterBattery 2020<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Nanum Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 13pt;\">SK Innovation was the first in the market to develop and begin mass production of NCM622 and 811 batteries.
