About this award

Kulr Technology Corp has been awarded a $117.25K firm fixed-price purchase order by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Shared Services Center to fabricate 21,700 P50B trigger cells with internal short circuit devices. The contract, awarded on April 29, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of February 15, 2026, is a direct sole-source award with no set-aside designation. Performance will take place at Kulr's facility in San Diego, California. The procurement was issued as a special notice on April 21, 2025, indicating the government's intent to award directly to Kulr based on its specialized capabilities in advanced battery technologies.

Under the statement of work, Kulr will fabricate 70 functional trigger cells using Molicel INR-18650-P50B cells with internally implanted short circuit devices, targeting high energy density specifications exceeding 250 Wh/kg and 700 Wh/L. The technical scope includes a specific cell formation process, internal short circuit device implantation, and comprehensive testing protocols to demonstrate thermal runaway triggering effectiveness. Cells are scheduled for delivery to NASA Johnson Space Center within three months after contract start, with screening and testing results to be submitted at least two days prior to shipment. This award reinforces Kulr's established role as a critical provider of safety-critical battery solutions for NASA's human spaceflight and advanced spacecraft programs.
