Company Overview

Litona GmbH, founded in 2023 in Karlsruhe, Germany by battery engineer Sebastian Büchele and chemist Tom Bötticher, emerged from research at Dalhousie University and collaborations with Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and the Post Lithium Storage Cluster of Excellence to develop sustainable sodium-ion battery solutions based on Prussian White cathodes.

Battery Technology

Development and production of Prussian White cathode material (sodium-iron-manganese) for sodium-ion batteries, offering energy densities comparable to entry-level lithium-ion with superior charging rates, low-temperature performance, using abundant raw materials to reduce cost and supply risks.

Products

Prussian White cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries, featuring comparable energy density to entry-level Li-ion, superior fast charging, excellent low-temperature performance, and cost-effective manufacturing.

Recent Projects

In 2024, launched first production facility in Ulm, Germany; began commercial sales of Prussian White cathode materials to research institutions and industry partners worldwide; appointed Tom Bötticher as Co-Managing Director.

Investors

Litona GmbH is backed by private deep-tech investors (currently in active discussions) and has strategic academic partnerships with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Dalhousie University.
