Nissan already runs a lithium-ion battery joint venture with NEC, called AESC.

Hengist and Æsc slew four troops of Britons with the edge of the sword.

AESC also aims to supply other vehicle makers in what promises to become a competitive field.

In August last year, Nissan had announced its plan to sell AESC to GSR for an undisclosed sum.

Here Hengest and Æsc fought against the Walas: and they took countless spoil: and the Walas fled the Engles like fire.

The Chinese group entered the electric vehicle battery market by acquiring AESC from Japanese car maker Nissan Motor Co 7201.T two years ago.

Reuters reported in 2014 that Ghosn was preparing to cut battery production by AESC and instead use packs made by LG Chem 051910.KS.
