ProLogium Technology and OCSiAl have announced a partnership aimed at enhancing European supply chains for high-performance batteries. OCSiAl has launched a single-wall carbon nanotube dispersion facility in Serbia with an annual capacity of 3,000 metric tons. This facility will support ProLogium’s gigafactory project in Dunkirk, France, which is expected to be completed by late 2026 and begin mass production in early 2027.
As a leader in energy innovation, ProLogium specializes in the research, development, and manufacture of lithium ceramic batteries for both consumer and industrial electric vehicle markets. The integration of OCSiAl’s single-wall carbon nanotubes into ProLogium’s electrodes aims to enhance battery performance by reducing electrode resistance and increasing cell energy density. Single-wall carbon nanotubes are known for their exceptional conductivity and ability to form robust, long-distance connections between electrode particles, meeting stringent safety and performance standards for next-generation electric vehicles.
“ProLogium continues to make breakthroughs in next-generation battery technology. OCSiAl’s cost-effective, high-purity single-wall carbon nanotubes further enhance our lithium ceramic batteries, allowing them to achieve even greater energy density and rate capability,” said Vincent Yang, founder and chairman of ProLogium Technology. “We value suppliers with exceptional products who help us accelerate the development of next-generation battery technology.”
The new OCSiAl facility adheres to the highest industry quality standards, supporting ProLogium’s goals for product excellence and sustainable development in Europe. “The collaboration between OCSiAl and ProLogium enables the formation of a robust supply chain to reduce manufacturers’ carbon footprints and drive global innovation toward a fully electric and sustainable future,” commented Andrej Seniut, head of OCSiAl Energy. “OCSiAl’s next facility will be launched in Luxembourg by 2027–2028, further bolstering ProLogium’s plans for its Dunkirk gigafactory and Paris-Saclay R&D center.”
