HPB’s solid-state battery technology provides significant enhancements in safety, durability, and a substantially reduced environmental footprint. With intellectual property protection in 96 countries, HPB’s batteries generate up to 50% better environmental balance compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries.
The proprietary technology aims to drive substantial advancements in energy storage, focusing on grid-scale stationary storage, residential/home storage, and extending to specialized applications in defense and maritime sectors, among many others. In addition, the technology holds the potential for future integration in the automotive industry, particularly through its safe and highly conductive solid-state electrolyte component.
Battery Technology
HPB’s solid-state batteries set new industry benchmarks due to their unique non-flammable electrolyte and superior performance. Key benefits include:
- Exceptional Durability: HPB batteries deliver over 12,500 full charge-discharge cycles under demanding conditions (1C/1C, 0–100% State of Charge, at room temperature). This performance is approximately ten times higher than that of conventional lithium-ion batteries tested under similar conditions, significantly reducing replacement frequency and total lifecycle costs.
- Environmental Advantages: The technology achieves approximately 50% improved environmental performance compared to traditional batteries, notably by avoiding critical raw materials such as cobalt.
- Cold-Weather Performance: The HPB Solid-State Electrolyte, on the other hand, maintains high conductivity in extremely low temperatures, eliminating the need for preheating and ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions.
Series Production: Feasible and Scalable
HPB’s solid-state battery technology utilizes a unique “Drop-in Production” process, wherein the HPB Solid-State Electrolyte is introduced as a liquid into the battery cell which later solidifies within the cell as the result of a chemical reaction. This forms the HPB Solid-State Electrolyte and allows manufacturing to be scaled up industrially without the need to develop completely new production technologies.
Flexible Licensing Model
HPB operates on a strategic licensing model, offering three distinct options tailored to industry needs:
- Market License (e.g., grid stabilization, energy storage systems, defence, data centres, and maritime applications among several others).
- Manufacturing Licenses, enabling local production capabilities.
- Component License for the proprietary HPB Solid-State Electrolyte, specifically targeting automotive industry requirements.
These flexible licensing options support diverse industrial applications and create numerous opportunities for collaboration.
Recent Projects
HPB has established significant licensing agreements, notably with:
- Swiss Clean Battery AG (Switzerland)
- Electric One Holding (India)
- Volt-Bar GmbH (Germany, Benelux, Scandinavia)
Production of HPB Solid-State Batteries is scheduled to commence in 2026, with an expected timeline of 24 months from initial project launch to full-scale series production.
Recently, HPB gained international recognition through a feature on Bloomberg Television’s “New to The Street” program, highlighting its groundbreaking battery innovations to a global audience.
HPB also co-hosted the Future of Batteries Summit (FOB) in New York City in June 2025, bringing together global industry leaders to bridge innovation, advanced battery technology, and commercial deployment. The event gathered influential players like Porsche Consulting, McKinsey, NY-BEST, and major investors to discuss critical themes, including solid-state battery advancements, licensing strategies, scaling manufacturing, and accelerating the energy transition.
The company strengthened its presence in winter sports marketing during the most recent bobsleigh season by sponsoring multiple bobsleigh teams. At the IBSF World Championships 2025 held in Lake Placid, USA, they sponsored Team Ammour, Team Lochner, and athlete Lisa Buckwitz. CEO Dr. Sebastian Heinz called the sport “high performance, high tech, high speed,” aligning it with HPB’s solid state battery traits. It also reinforces HPB’s technical message: the battery’s proven performance at very low temperatures (down to –40 °C) mirrors the extreme cold conditions‑ of bobsleigh competition.
Investors
HPB is supported by over 300 private investors. The company follows a unique financing approach, conducting direct share sales without public listing or capital rounds. This strategy prevents ownership dilution, enabling HPB to retain strategic control.
The HPB Club is HPB’s exclusive shareholder community where once all available shares are sold, no new members can join. Members are rewarded through a high-dividend strategy, with up to 75% of annual net profits distributed among them.
This stable financial foundation supports continued technological innovation and market growth.
