From research within the field of climate change and energy usage efficiency in the UK, there is a strong need for batteries to be produced for vehicles and energy storage. As an engineer who has studied the subject on energy storage I am looking to start a company that manufacture EV batteries. My value skew is based on using another material instead of Lithium ion and produce massless batteries or structural batteries that are light in weight but have the same energy storage capacity. Problem is I have no where near the type of money needed to execute this. When researching for the manufacturing machine, I'd need to have at least 1.5 million in capital to get this started. My question is how do I get this started. Are business loans the right path?

Cheers
