Li-Metal - Low-Cost and Scalable Technology
Lithium Anodes: Conventional metallic anodes are made of lithium foil – the properties of lithium make it very difficult to produce foils in the wide and thin formats needed to maximize the performance of next generation batteries.
- Flexible bespoke anode production adaptable to different next-generation battery designs
- Patent pending low-cost, high-performance composite lithium metal anode technology
- Highly scalable single-machine process ensures high-quality production at high volume
Li-Metal anodes offer better energy density than foil anodes because they can be practically made thinner – no excess lithium.
Cost and quality improve with decreasing anode thickness leading to high battery cell energy density and reduced material use – exactly what is needed for high-performance batteries.
Underlying technology adapted from very large scale – no fundamental technology breakthrough needed for large-format battery anodes.
As the world moves away from oil-based fuels and toward renewable energy sources and battery-powered technology, the need for new lithium batteries and lithium foil anodes has become more prevalent.
Existing outdated lithium metal production technologies rely on high-purity lithium chloride, producing 5 tonnes of toxic chlorine gas for each tonne of lithium.
- Lithium metal locally produced, leveraging a widely available chemical used in conventional lithium-ion batteries
- Patent-pending technology, with expanding technology portfolio
- No complicated treatment equipment, low operating costs
