Sila Begins the Commissioning of its Moses Lake Plant, a Major Milestone on the Path to Becoming Fully Operational in 2025

Sila, a next-generation battery materials company, announced the start of the commissioning phase for its first auto-scale manufacturing plant in Moses Lake, Washington–Sila Moses Lake. This first processing unit starting commissioning marks a major event in the plant’s construction and start-up process.

The commissioning stage verifies that all systems and components are working correctly to ensure successful operations. The process will include full mechanical completion, systems integration, equipment verification, and safety and compliance reviews to ensure operational readiness. The transition from the commissioning phase into material production remains on schedule for the second half of 2025.

Sila Moses Lake will produce Titan Silicon, Sila’s breakthrough silicon anode technology, at the capacity needed to deliver for multiple automotive customers, as well as a growing pipeline of consumer electronics and technology products. As demand grows for improved battery performance in everything from wearable devices and electric vehicles to drones and robotics, Sila’s plant plays a pivotal role in ensuring a domestic supply of a critical material used in lithium-ion batteries, reducing U.S. reliance on foreign supply chains.

“America has always led the world in innovation, but we’ve often fallen short when it comes to manufacturing that innovation at scale. Sila aims to change that,” said Gene Berdichevsky, Co-founder and CEO of Sila. “This milestone is proof that we can take cutting-edge technology and turn it into reality. It’s a tremendous accomplishment for the team, and more importantly, it strengthens our path toward greater energy independence.”
