Core innovations include high-performance silicon anodes made from metallurgical silicon (MG-Si) offering up to ten times the energy storage capacity of graphite, and proprietary nanolayer battery electrode coatings that improve usable capacity by up to 30% and enhance safety and longevity. Both integrate into existing lithium-ion battery manufacturing processes.
Commercial-scale 60 Ah lithium-ion battery cells using domestically sourced silicon anodes, delivering a tenfold increase in specific capacity versus graphite, reducing material costs by up to 50% and carbon emissions; produced at a 4 MWh facility with plans to scale to 100 MWh.
Launched first commercial-scale 60 Ah cells; operating a 4 MWh production facility with plans for 100 MWh; A-sample deliveries of 60 Ah cells to global automakers in 2025; partnerships with Ferroglobe, BASF and Meyers Manx.
Series A funding round of $12M was led by Trousdale Ventures, Industry Ventures and Helios Capital Ventures. Additional investors include Entrada Ventures, Foothill Ventures and Asymmetry Ventures.
