Battery storage company KPCB has set its sights on a commercial offering after pausing operations to redesign its high-temperature seals, develop its battery management system and develop its heater controls. The company's improved designs for a commercial battery system will be built in the coming year and are expected to be available to customers in 2018, according to a spokesperson for the company. Last year the company laid off approximately 25% of its workforce because the prototype was not ready to go to market.
