SINT-TRUIDEN, Belgium — Since its inception in 2022, SOLiTHOR has made big developments in its battery know-how growth. SOLiTHOR’s all-solid-state lithium metallic Gen1 prototype pouch cell has reached a milestone of 500 cycles, at full charge-discharge, with lower than 7% of capability loss and continues to cycle additional. The pouch cells that proceed to cycle have been going by means of ongoing assessments in SOLiTHOR’s laboratories for a number of months now at ambient temperature situations of 25ᵒC with 72 psi utilized exterior stress.
The trade commonplace targets for this growth section are 700 charging cycles with a most capability lack of 20%. SOLiTHOR expects to achieve this goal within the not too distant future.
In keeping with Dr Fanny Bardé, CTO of SOLiTHOR, “This endurance test is a crucial stepping stone as it proves the durability of our product and the stability of our chemistry at ambient temperature, bringing long-range electric vehicles closer to consumer requirements. The final result of this development could be a battery cell that enables long ranges.”
Along with cyclability performances, SOLiTHOR has developed vitality dense cells of 785Wh/L and 318Wh/kg at stack degree.
The demonstration of the cyclability of these Gen1 prototype pouch cells on the one hand, and of the excessive gravimetric vitality and excessive vitality density reached on the opposite, are key accomplishments in SOLiTHOR’s quest in the direction of delivering a safer, excessive efficiency, sturdy battery know-how.
Huw Hampson-Jones, CEO of SOLiTHOR mentioned, “These technical developments underpin the strategic thrust of the all-solid-state lithium metal cell technology for use by the aviation and maritime sectors. The collaboration with aircraft manufacturers and naval architects is providing the impetus behind these results, and provides the confidence to our clients for key performance targets in the coming 2 years. It also means that SOLiTHOR is getting closer and closer to developing all-solid-state technology for the entire electromobility sector.”
Though SOLiTHOR is simply two years outdated, it’s a rising firm with in extra of 40 workers by the tip of 2024. While recognising that there’s important work forward and due to the quick progress made by its workforce to ship tangible prototypes with USP, SOLiTHOR has the arrogance to acknowledge that it’s paving the way in which to a brand new class of superior battery know-how utilizing Strong Composite Electrolytes to impress our society in a sustainable approach — within the air, on the ocean and on the land.
SOLiTHOR’s know-how affords compelling worth propositions, efficiency, vitality density/weight, security and manufacturability for its goal markets. Its subsequent medium-term goal is reaching between 850Wh/L and 900Wh/L.
