Altech Batteries develops two primary technologies: the CERENERGY® Sodium Chloride Solid-State Battery and Silumina Anodes™. CERENERGY® is developed in partnership with Fraunhofer IKTS and uses common table salt and a ceramic electrolyte, eliminating lithium, cobalt, graphite, and copper. It is fire and explosion-proof, lasts over 15 years, and operates across extreme temperatures with highly recyclable materials and potentially lower production costs. Silumina Anodes™ is a nano-coating application of high-purity alumina on silicon and graphite particles for lithium-ion battery anodes, enhancing energy capacity, longevity, and reducing first-cycle capacity loss for electric vehicles and high-performance electronics.
The company’s products include the CERENERGY® Sodium Chloride Solid-State Battery designed for grid energy storage and Silumina Anodes™ nano-coated battery anodes aimed at electric vehicles and electronics for improved battery performance and energy density.
Altech Batteries secured environmental and construction permits in 2025 for its CERENERGY® production facility in Saxony, Germany, a 120 MWh solid-state battery plant. They improved Silumina Anodes™ technology performance in 2025 and showcased CERENERGY® at Hannover Messe 2025 engaging industry stakeholders.
Major investors include MAA Group Berhad, Deutsche Balaton AG, and BNP Paribas Noms Pty Ltd. In 2025, a funding agreement was secured with Deutsche Balaton AG to support commercialization efforts. The company’s investor base also encompasses the general public, private companies, institutions, and venture capital/private equity firms.
