TRION Battery Technologies Inc., founded in 2013 in Calgary, Canada, specializes in advanced lithium-ion battery solutions and silicon technology development. The company focuses on creating efficient energy storage solutions for electric vehicles and various industrial applications. TRION’s innovative silicon materials significantly enhance battery performance, offering up to 40-50% increased capacity compared to traditional graphite-based solutions. Through continuous research and development, TRION has established itself as a significant contributor to the clean energy transition, particularly in the electric vehicle sector, which is projected to reach $53 trillion by 2050.

Battery Technology

TRION’s technological portfolio centers on two main innovations: SX-Silicon technology and LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries. The SX-Silicon technology represents a substantial advancement in battery material science, delivering up to 35% increased cell capacity and maintaining over 90% first cycle efficiency. This silicon-based solution achieves more than 1,000 cycles of full depth-of-discharge when combined with TRION’s proprietary electrolyte systems.

The manufacturing process utilizes abundant, cost-effective raw materials, eliminating the need for expensive silane gas while remaining compatible with existing industry-standard cell production methods. This compatibility ensures manufacturers can implement TRION’s technology without substantial equipment investments.

Through its subsidiary Liacon, TRION produces advanced LFP batteries that offer 200% more usable capacity than standard lead-acid alternatives. These batteries excel in performance metrics, featuring charge rates ten times faster than competitors and a service life extended by a factor of five compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries. The LFP technology can generate over 3 gigawatts of power annually, making it suitable for various applications, from electric vehicles to industrial energy storage.

Recent Projects

In January 2024, TRION Battery Technologies entered into a binding letter agreement with Reocito Capital, initiating a process toward a public listing. This strategic move aims to expand access to capital markets and accelerate product development.

In August 2023, TRION formed a strategic partnership with Forge Nano, combining TRION’s silicon materials with Forge Nano’s Atomic Layer Deposition coating technology. This collaboration focuses on enhancing battery performance specifically for aerospace and defense applications, targeting improved energy density and safety standards.
