Recall MOU with Ecellix Ecellix, Inc
Ecellix, Inc. is a VC-backed cleantech company based in Seattle WA that has developed a high-capacity nano-porous silicon-carbon anode material called eCell. Deployment of the eCell technology will enable a new generation of enhanced range EVs and mobility applications and extended use consumer devices, power tools and residential energy storage. At scale, Ecellix is positioned to be the low-cost market leader ($/kWH) in the expanding global advanced battery anode material sector.
Ecellix eCell Advantage:
- Innovation: Integration of eCell silicon anode materials as a replacement for graphite will enables up to a 30% increase in cell energy capacity or 30% a reduction in battery pack volume & weight.
- Performance: Ecellix’s nano-porous silicon / carbon composite anode materials combined with novel electrolyte offers unprecedented battery cycle life, up to 150% that of alternative technologies
- Adaptable: Drop-in replacement into established battery manufacturing tooling & processes. Platform and application agnostic – can be implemented in multiple form factors to suit partner/customer requirements.
- Pricing: Targeting price parity with today’s lower energy density graphite anodes with opportunity for future reduction through simplified precursors and processes
- Cost: At scale, potential for cost reduction and simplified production processes.
