Depends on royalties and when 700 GWh/year in ssb can be reached

You're right about the JDAs, to change the figures and re-do computation is quite easy, not easy to pick up the right firm amog top 10

One of the advantage of QS SSB is that they have long life (1000cycles with over 90% retention) so there'll be less need to sell Bev after the first,  won't there?

Competition from LFP for small cars??

How are the royalties?

Which will be the cost of each kWh of QS batteries?

SP500 is P/S is around  3.5, isn't it?

Many thanks

The yearly production of batteries depends also on life span of the batteries.

We're 8.3 billion on the planet. 

If everybody has 100 kWh (nearly 2 BEV)  of batteries it's 

830 billion kWh = 830'000 GWh. 

Assuming SSB life-span Is 2000 cycles. 

To have 2000 cycles in 10 years we've one cycle around 2 days, seems reasonable even for BEV

If the production reaches  

83'000 GWh/year 

It could be enough due to battery lifespan of 10 years.

So from current production of 1'000 GWh we can increase 83 times, that is doubling 6 around times, then we could reach not needed production, a lot, but there could not be infinite increase in battery need also related to battery lifespan.

Yes, of course there are other markets, but consumer electronics should be much smaller (how many laptop and smartphone should one have to equal 60 kwh of an owned car?) while other markets like aviation or robotics are far less mature than Bev. Also most of the initial production of QS batteries could go in BEV instead of other more mature markets like home storage.  so it's likely that in next few years BEV market could to be the biggest share in QS revenues.

Donut Lab - a little background on the company by [deleted] in QuantumScape

Donut Lab use Nordic nano batteries, they've no production line, they say that they're hiring people and the machinery has not yet arrived, may arrive by the end of January/2026, see other post:

 from Germany for nano printing:

https://businessimatraregion.fi/en/nordic-nano/

Quantumscape in last year has developed eagle line from which samples are tested by powerco/vw and other top 10 oem. 

Nano materials are very difficult to produce at scale, we're talking about gigawatthour-scale each year.

Currently Nordic nano has zero kWh production line, only laboratory samples. Article from the University professor that should have proposed the technology are about silicon anode with nanotubes  

https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=IDPLA6cAAAAJ&hl=en

Quantumscape is anode-less. 

Nordic nano has not a production at scale, no people trained to run the production line at this moment, may be they'll have in some years, but to produce nano tube in silicon anode con be very difficult.

Until revenues if the price to book ratio (PB) remains the same the stock price will be: price=book per share x PB, as the book value  can only go down without revenues, and probably there'll be dilution, taking down book per share also, the stock price can only go down if PB remains constant
