CeLLife Technologies Ltd., a Finnish deep-tech innovation born in 2022 as a spin-off from Tampere University, is transforming the global battery industry through advanced quality control and lifecycle optimization solutions. Headquartered in Tampere, Finland, the company addresses critical challenges in battery manufacturing, including waste reduction, efficiency, and sustainability by delivering cutting-edge diagnostics and analytics. Its proprietary Electrical Fingerprint Platform (EFP) leverages years of research and artificial intelligence to analyze battery cells in seconds, detecting defects, predicting performance, and extending usable lifespans.
With a commitment to circularity, CeLLife helps manufacturers minimize environmental impact while meeting rigorous quality standards for EV batteries, energy storage, and consumer electronics. Key milestones include a 900-fold speed improvement over traditional diagnostics and an 85–100% reduction in CO2 emissions linked to defective or prematurely retired cells, positioning the company at the forefront of sustainable energy innovation.
Battery Technology
At the core of CeLLife’s offerings is its patented EFP technology, a system that evaluates battery cells in 2–5 seconds by collecting over 2,000 data points per test. This rapid analysis identifies mechanical and electrochemical defects undetectable through conventional methods, ensuring near-100% quality assurance during manufacturing. The platform’s AI-driven algorithms also predict cell degradation, performance trends, and lifespan, enabling proactive adjustments to extend usable life. Integrated with CeLLife’s Battery Perfected Cloud solution, the system provides real-time diagnostics, classification, and failure prediction, streamlining quality control for gigafactories and enabling seamless integration regardless of battery chemistry, form factor, or voltage.
Beyond production, CeLLife’s technology supports lifecycle optimization and recycling. By mapping degradation patterns, cells can transition to second-life applications—such as energy storage systems or telecommunications equipment—thereby reducing waste. The company’s processes recover raw materials like lithium and cobalt during recycling, advancing circular economy principles. Future development of System-on-Module (SoM) devices will allow real-time health monitoring in deployed batteries, enhancing safety and performance in electric vehicles and industrial equipment. This modular design ensures scalability, compatibility with existing systems, and adaptability to emerging battery technologies like solid-state cells.
Recent Projects
In late 2024, CeLLife expanded its capabilities with a new testing and production facility in Finland to support growing global demand. Building on this infrastructure, the company secured participation in BAT Circle 3.0, a European consortium advancing battery recycling standards, in 2024. Early 2025 brought recognition from Business Finland’s Deep Tech Accelerator program, which provided critical funding and support. CeLLife also exhibited its solutions at Vaasa Energy Week in March 2025, showcasing its EFP technology on stand B13. These initiatives align with ongoing efforts to scale operations in the EU, U.S., and Asia through partnerships with industry leaders, further solidifying its presence in key markets.
Investors
CeLLife’s rapid growth is backed by strategic investments and institutional support. In June 2024, a €2 million seed round led by Ventech provided critical capital for scaling production and R&D. Grid.VC, a Finnish early-stage investor, and prominent angel investors joined this round, enhancing the company’s access to technical expertise and market networks. Academic backing comes from Tampere University, its founding institution, while Business Finland’s Deep Tech Accelerator program awarded funding in February 2025 to advance sustainability initiatives. Collectively, these partners ensure CeLLife remains agile in addressing industry challenges and capitalizing on global battery demand growth.
