 Abstract

Anders Teigland

Anders Teigland

CEO

As the demand for fast-charging, long-life, and safe lithium-ion batteries grows across sectors such as electric mobility, industrial power tools, and stationary storage, the limitations of conventional anode materials are becoming increasingly apparent. Graphite, while energy-dense, struggles with rate capability, cycle life and safety under high loads. Lithium titanate (LTO) , a widely used alternative material for power applications, offers excellent cycle life and thermal stability but is hindered by high cost, low energy density, and energy demanding processing.
This presentation explores the development and industrialization of a new class of titanium-based anode materials designed to address these trade-offs. These materials combine the structural stability and safety profile of LTO with improved energy density and significantly lower production costs. By leveraging abundant raw materials and new and scalable synthesis methods, they offer a compelling pathway toward high-performance, cost-effective, and competitive power-oriented batteries.
We will present key electrochemical performance metrics, including fast-charging capability, long cycle life , and thermal resilience. The talk will also address manufacturability and the importance of consistent quality output, compatibility with existing cell designs, and the broader implications for accelerating the adoption of high-power lithium-ion technologies in a cost-sensitive and sustainability-driven market.

Metal-free flow batteries: intrinsically safe, long-life energy storage without scarce metals

joint
Short Demo

 Abstract

Tobias Janoschka

Tobias Janoschka

CTO

Large-scale energy storage must be as safe and reliable as the grids it supports. Metal-free flow batteries rise to this challenge by using inherently safe water-based electrolytes and delivering long cycle life, all without depending on scarce metals.
In these batteries, inexpensive organic redox molecules are dissolved in benign salt solutions and circulated from external tanks through a compact cell stack. Because energy (tank volume) and power (stack size) are decoupled, systems can be scaled straightforwardly from kilowatt-hour to multi-megawatt-hour installations. The non-flammable electrolytes operate near ambient pressure, making the technology inherently immune to thermal runaway and suitable for deployment in sensitive environments without elaborate fire-mitigation measures. By eliminating scarce active materials, we reduce supply-chain risk, simplify recycling, and extend component life. Flexible, modular design further allows application-specific tuning, from frequency regulation and peak-shifting to long-duration energy storage.
This talk will explain the underlying technology, highlight the key materials, and explore how metal-free flow batteries have been scaled to become a cornerstone of safe, durable, and sustainable stationary storage.

Towards Scalable Processing of Amorphous LLZO for Solid State Batteries

 Abstract

Gabriel Crane

Gabriel Crane

PHD Candidate

Solid-state lithium batteries show promise as a leading technology for next-generation high-energy-density storage, with the ceramic oxide Lithium Lanthanum Zirconium Oxide (LLZO) emerging as a key candidate for solid-state electrolytes due to its high ionic conductivity. However, commercial development has faced significant hurdles in the scalable processing of low-defectivity thin films in a manner suitable for mass-market battery applications. In this defense, I present our research on the formation of amorphous LLZO (a-LLZO) using a blown-arc nitrogen plasma technique to rapidly form thin film a-LLZO, then evaluate the viability of a-LLZO for scalable applications in contrast with the more commonly researched cubic phase.

 Abstract

Sebastien Fantini

Sebastien Fantini

R&D Project Manager

Solid-state batteries (SSBs) pave the way to safer and higher energy density batteries. But the performances of their electrolytes remain a hurdle, as they most often lead to
poor contact and ion transfer across interfaces. This is why the addition of organic liquid electolytes to form gel electrolytes and/or to “wet” the interfaces is widely used by SSB developers to enhance performances. While this strategy efficiently lowers the interfacial resistance, it is detrimental to safety. This presentation details the performances of a range of high voltage and nonflammable liquid electrolytes, for several anodes and cathodes chemistries. It also shows how such electrolytes help to unlock SSBs technology by enhancing ion transfer across interfaces, increasing ionic conductivity of solid-state electrolytes, eliminating the requirement of stack pressure application, while preserving safety properties.

 Abstract

CEO, Co-founder

Heavy-duty electrification is essential to reducing transportation operating costs, maintenance costs and improving health and safety. However, current lithium-ion battery technologies fall short in meeting the demanding requirements of heavy-duty applications, including fast charging, ultra-long cycle life, cold-weather performance, and domestic sourcing.
To address these challenges, we introduce a novel lithium vanadium oxide (LVO) anode. This a new class of metal oxide material has been demonstrated to have 10C-rate charge/discharge, wide operating temperature (-20 to +50 °C), and energy densities of over 150 Wh/kg and over 400 Wh/L, significantly exceeding performance of current commercial technologies.
In this presentation, we will detail the specific material properties of LVO, demonstrate pouch cell performance and show this can positively impact the heavy-duty sector.

 Abstract

Youngju Lee

Youngju Lee

Lithium metal anodes offer an exceptionally high theoretical capacity of 3860 mAh g⁻¹ and the lowest negative electrochemical potential among known anode materials, making them a promising candidate for next-generation batteries. However, their practical application is hindered by critical safety challenges, including dendritic growth that can induce short-circuits, and thermal hazards arising from the high reactivity of lithium, especially in porous structures. Various approaches have been explored to mitigate these issues—such as solid and semi-solid electrolytes, tailored electrolyte formulations and additives, conformal surface coatings, and engineered current collectors—but many face limitations under lean-electrolyte and low-stack-pressure conditions. Recently, 3D host structures have emerged as a compelling strategy to confine lithium deposition and regulate Li-ion flux, enabling compact, non-porous lithium growth and improved cycling stability. This presentation will discuss the fundamental principles of lithium-metal anodes, review recent advances in host-structure design, and outline pathways toward integrating such architectures into practical cell configurations.

 Abstract

Sebastian Pohlmann

Sebastian Pohlmann

CTO

Carbon materials such as graphite and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are important in energy storage technologies, particularly in lithium-ion batteries. However, their conventional production—through mining or synthesis from fossil-based feedstocks—has large environmental impacts.

A sustainable alternative is converting CO₂ emissions directly into graphite and CNTs using molten salt carbon capture and electrochemical transformation (MSCC-ET). This energy-efficient process operates at lower temperatures, avoids fossil-based feedstock such as petroleum coke, and allows production of battery-grade graphite with a climate-negative footprint.

The resulting materials meet the performance requirements for advanced battery applications and offer a scalable, cost-competitive solution for local carbon material production.

 Abstract

Onas Bolton

Onas Bolton

CEO/Founder

Water-based batteries that utilize safe, economical, scalable, and sustainable metals like iron, zinc, and lead are attractive options for meeting the daunting energy storage needs of the future. These batteries are generally nonflammable, reliable, rugged, widely sourced, economical, long-lasting, and easily recyclable, making them a more ideal fit for large-scale storage. However, if aqueous batteries are to compete with mature and well-supported incumbents (i.e. lithium batteries), aqueous battery performance must improve and scale very quickly. To help optimize aqueous batteries rapidly, organic electrolyte additives offer an elegant and impactful option.

With careful design, informed empirically via hundreds of molecular candidates, organic additives have been identified that selectively prevent dendrite formation, hydrogen evolution, shape change, and other deleterious side reactions in a variety of aqueous batteries: different metals, cathodes, pHs, and salts. As presented in this talk, additives have been created that can raise battery capacity by 25%, round trip efficiency by 10%, and cycle life by 100%. This talk will discuss the approach used to identify and elucidate the molecular design principles employed as well as the impact and sensitivity of organic molecular structure on aqueous battery performance.

 Abstract

Senior Battery Scientist

Iron, as one of the Earth's most prevalent elements, presents numerous advantages over scarce and costly materials such as cobalt and nickel. The natural abundance of iron results in lower raw material expenses, making Fe-based battery chemistries more economically feasible, particularly for large-scale uses like grid energy storage. The abundance of iron is a key factor in advancing battery technologies that necessitate affordable and scalable energy storage solutions. Beyond the economic advantages, iron's electrochemical properties facilitate stable redox reactions, which are essential for energy storage systems. Additionally, iron's low toxicity and widespread geographic availability mitigate supply chain risks, bolstering long-term sustainability. These characteristics render Fe-based batteries highly suitable for stationary energy storage and other extensive applications where cost, safety, and durability are critical. This presentation will explore the growing interest in all-soluble Fe-RFB technologies. Unlike conventional hybrid Fe-RFB systems that utilize a hybrid anode, all-soluble Fe-RFB employs soluble electrolytes for both the anode and cathode sides, similar to vanadium RFB systems. This approach allows for the decoupling of energy and power—addressing a key technical challenge faced by conventional hybrid Fe flow batteries—thus overcoming technical limitations and enhancing operational scalability.
