Albufera Energy Storage develops three primary aluminum battery technologies: aluminum-ion batteries with up to 80 Wh/kg specific energy and over 6,000 charge-discharge cycles; aluminum-air batteries for electric mobility with material test cell energy values of 2,140 Wh/kg and aiming for 1,000 Wh/kg in vehicle prototypes by 2025; and aluminum-solid state batteries using high-viscosity gel or solid electrolytes for longer charge-discharge cycles and enhanced safety in portable electronics.
The company provides aluminum-ion, aluminum-air, and aluminum-solid state battery products with features such as high energy density, long cycle life, safety, environmental benefits, and suitability for large-scale energy storage and portable electronics.
In 2024, Albufera advanced projects including rechargeable aluminum-air batteries under the NEOTEC program, development of high-efficiency cathodes for metal-air rechargeable batteries, and sulfur-aluminum batteries with polymeric gel electrolytes. They participate in the EU-funded FET-OPEN SALBAGE project and maintain collaborations with organizations like HEMPOL. Their work focuses on technology innovation, research partnerships, and commercial activities supporting European energy storage solutions.
