No exclusivity for nanopowders, royalties onlyThe best path forward for HPQ nano could go through a partnership with Tesla or Daimler or Qc's gov, those are the the ones I believe would have the best chance on being in at Bernard and Peter's will.
There will be no exclusivity because even Elon said he still needed the maximum of cell from actual suppliers and they'll need nanosilicone to stay in the game. The partnership would cost a lot but those big partners will be able to build their own 2500TPY plants at their expenses and then give royalties for it's own production... HPQ will only pay for its own for the other clients, easily with the partnership paiements. That's what awaits us in the next year to 2 years. My 2 cents...
