According to Reuters a Japanese firm makes batteries for the Dreamliner, which is a tad ironic.

The company is GS Yuasa Corp and the shares were hit on the Tokyo bourse, falling nearly 5 percent.

However, the report only says the company makes batteries for the aeroplane, not all batteries. If they don't make the batteries in the forward compartment, fill your boots as the shares will bounce back!
