Battery X Metals (CSE:BATX)announced a major milestone in the development of its next-generation lithium-ion battery rebalancing technology. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Battery X Rebalancing Technologies Inc., has successfully validated the core innovations described in its provisional patent applications filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) through a series of real-world preliminary trials.
The company’s second-generation rebalancing platform, known as Prototype 2.0 (pictured above), demonstrated exceptional performance in restoring lost capacity in electric vehicle (EV) battery packs due to cell-level imbalances. These trials mark a significant step forward in Battery X’s mission to extend the lifespan of EV batteries and reduce long-term ownership costs for consumers and fleet operators.
In one trial, Prototype 2.0 was tested on a 96-cell battery pack from a Nissan Leaf—one of the most common out-of-warranty EV models in the U.S. Despite only minor voltage imbalances, the system successfully rebalanced all cells to 4.20 volts, recovering 1.95 ampere-hours of capacity—a 3.9 per cent increase in usable energy. This result highlights the precision and scalability of the technology, even in relatively healthy battery packs.
A second trial involved a 144-cell battery pack from a fully electric Class 3 commercial vehicle exhibiting significant imbalance. Prototype 2.0 recovered 66.3 ampere-hours, representing a 37.7 per cent recovery of the pack’s rated capacity. The system achieved 100 per cent recovery of imbalance-induced capacity loss, demonstrating its robustness under more demanding conditions and its applicability to commercial EV platforms.
“The trials are confirming exactly what we filed with the USPTO,” Massimo Bellini Bressi, CEO of Battery X Metals said in a media release. “To see both passenger and commercial electric vehicle battery platforms respond with full imbalance-related capacity recovery proves our technological innovations work-and it works where it matters most: in real-world environments with real-world degradation caused by battery cell imbalance.”
The company’s proprietary hardware and software platform includes advanced diagnostic tools capable of assessing battery State-of-Health (SoH) and identifying degradation patterns. The system is designed for both repair and second-life repurposing of lithium-ion batteries, supporting sustainability goals and reducing the need for costly replacements.
Battery X’s technology has also been independently validated by the National Research Council (NRC) of Canada. In a controlled test, the system successfully rebalanced a 15-cell LiFePO4 battery module, recovering nearly all capacity lost due to artificially induced imbalances.
With global EV sales reaching 17.1 million units in 2024 and projections indicating that nearly 40 million EVs will fall out of warranty by 2031, the need for cost-effective battery maintenance solutions is growing rapidly. Battery X Rebalancing Technologies aims to position itself as a first mover in this emerging market.
Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its validation program to include a broader range of EV battery chemistries and configurations. These efforts will support commercialization and market readiness for Prototype 2.0 across both consumer and fleet-based applications.
Battery X Rebalancing Technologies’ innovations represent the culmination of years of research and development and underscore the company’s commitment to supporting the global transition to sustainable electric mobility.
Battery X Metals Inc. is an energy transition resource exploration and technology company committed to advancing domestic and critical battery metal resource exploration and developing next-generation proprietary technologies.
Battery X Metals stock (CSE:BATX) last traded at $0.33 and has risen 266.67 per cent since the year began and 17.65 per cent since this time last year.
