The Engineering Behind Saltra
My name is SaiSri, Founder of Saltra Batteries, based in Aurora, Illinois, USA.
I hold an Engineering degree in Electro-Chemistry, with formal study in battery systems, corrosion science, electroplating, and applied materials engineering.
Energy storage was never accidental for me. I come from a family with a strong chemistry background, and from early on I was drawn to applied energy systems — not just theory, but real-world implementation.
During my university years, I saw a golf cart running on traditional lead-acid batteries. That moment stuck with me.
I kept asking:
Why are we still building modern systems on outdated chemistry?
That question eventually became Saltra.
