Group1 unveils potassium-ion 18650 cells: Full post - https://lnkd.in/gsW8UZWt Free EV Tech Newsletter - https://lnkd.in/gFDTxuxv Group1 announced the release of the world's first Potassium-ion battery -KIB- in the cylindrical 18650 form factor. The company reports that Group1's KIB technology offers a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective solution, free from critical minerals like nickel, cobalt, copper, and lithium. It seamlessly integrates into existing LIB processes, ensuring a smooth transition for manufacturers. As part of this launch, Group1 is delivering samples to key Tier 1 Original Equipment Manufacturers - OEMs - and cell manufacturers. This new KIB battery was unveiled at the 14th annual Beyond Lithium Conference at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. At the conference, Group1 highlighted the product's path from coin-cell to pouch-cell to 18650 format. This drew interest from national laboratory scientists and prominent thought leaders in the battery space. Leveraging Kristonite™, Group1's flagship product—a uniquely engineered 4V cathode material in the Potassium Prussian White - KPW class—this battery enables what they report as an optimal combination of performance, safety, and cost when compared to LiFePO4

Let´s meet during the Hannover Fair and talk about our unique approach of manufacturing bipolar plates for Fuel Cells and Electrolyzers. Additionally to that we from ZELTWANGER will explain how we define testing as a service for bipolar plates especially when it comes to high pressures around 35bar. #leaktesting #testing #fuelcell #bipolarplate

“Verdagy’s Factory, the First Department of Energy-Supported #Electrolyzer Cell Manufacturing Facility Is Opened” “Verdagy, a leading #greenhydrogen #electrolysis company, celebrated the grand opening of the first Department of Energy (DOE)-supported #electrolyzermanufacturing facility in the United States. The new Silicon Valley factory is in Newark, California and features more than 100,000 square feet of manufacturing space with the capacity to produce several gigawatts of #electrolyzers .” “Verdagy’s manufacturing strategy is to reduce #electrolyzerstack costs by implementing advanced #manufacturingautomations , a product designed for low cost, and high reliability and integration of a domestic #nickel alloy to a high-volume, #automatedmanufacturing line.” “The “Coils-to-Cells” manufacturing system aligns with the DOE goal that domestic electrolyzer manufacturing should be supported by a domestic supply of metals, fostering a domino effect on domestic production. In addition to its impressive production capabilities, the facility will create new #cleantechjobs in the local community.” Photo of Verdagy Press release https://shorturl.at/rFqhE https://lnkd.in/e3jXpzX4?

I'm proud to share a significant milestone achieved by our team and our France-based affiliate, Novacium, SAS.   We have successfully demonstrated a 14% improvement in lithium-ion battery performance using Novacium's first-generation engineered SiOx material, compared to the standard 100% graphite anode batteries.   This advancement comes without noticeable first-cycle degradation, marking a notable achievement in our ongoing efforts to enhance battery efficiency and longevity.   This achievement was realized through rigorous testing of 18650 industrial batteries, comparing traditional graphite anodes against batteries incorporating a blend of 90% graphite and 10% Novacium's engineered SiOx material. The initial results, surpassing our expectations, validate the potential of our SiOx material in improving battery performance.   Our focus at HPQ Silicon Inc. and Novacium SAS has always been to develop innovative materials that seamlessly integrate into existing battery manufacturing processes, offering a scalable, cost-effective solution for enhancing battery performance. This breakthrough is a testament to our technical expertise and aligns with our commitment to sustainable and efficient energy solutions.   Using the 18650 battery model for our tests reflects our strategy to utilize well-established and reliable technologies, ensuring our advancements are compatible with current market standards while keeping an eye on future developments.   I am excited about the implications of our findings for the broader battery industry, including applications in electric vehicles and portable electronics. This development is a step forward in our journey toward a sustainable energy future, and I look forward to sharing further updates as we continue our research and development efforts.   I invite you to read today's release for more information on this breakthrough and our ongoing projects (link in the comments). ++++++ #batterytechnology #lithiumionbattery #quebec

Anglo-Australian battery maker, Gelion has signed a joint development agreement with California-based #batterytechnology company, Ionblox to develop next-generation lithium silicon sulfur (LiSiS) cells targeting  the electric vertical take-off and landing (#eVTOL) and the global #EV market. As part of the JDA, Gelion will focus on the optimization of the sulfur cathode by incorporating the IP portfolio. At the same time, Ionblox will provide its high-energy density pre-lithiated silicon oxide anode and optimize it for use with Gelion's sulfur cathode.

NOVONIX Limited has made headlines with a new binding offtake agreement with Stellantis, securing a minimum of 86,250 tonnes and up to 115,000 tonnes of high-performance synthetic graphite material from 2026 to 2031. This significant partnership will supply Stellantis’ cell manufacturing partners in North America, positioning NOVONIX as a crucial player in the EV battery supply chain. The synthetic graphite will be produced at NOVONIX’s Riverside facility in Tennessee, with plans to meet growing demand through a new production site, supporting the North American EV industry’s push for localized battery materials. This agreement marks a major step for NOVONIX, especially as the Riverside facility is set to become North America’s first large-scale synthetic graphite production site, with commercial operations expected in 2025. NOVONIX is also progressing with plans to build a second facility with an initial 30,000 tpa capacity, expandable to 75,000 tpa, and remains in discussions with the U.S. Department of Energy for funding through the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Program. With support from a recent U.S. DOE grant and tax credits, NOVONIX is well-positioned to scale up its production to meet anticipated demand from top-tier clients like Stellantis, KORE Power, and Panasonic. Corporate Connect Research (CCR) has recently published an in-depth report on NOVONIX, highlighting the company’s competitive advantage as the only North American near-term supplier of high-grade synthetic graphite for battery production. The report also emphasizes NOVONIX’s pioneering cathode technology, which reduces waste and production costs and has recently received patent approval in Japan.
