SiLi-ion

Grant in 2024
SiLi-ion has developed an “ultra-nano-silicon” powder material that entirely replaces graphite in a lithium-ion battery (LIB). This breakthrough increases the anode’s energy density by over four times and reduces CO2e emissions by 68 kilos for every kilo sold, amounting to a reduction of 50,000 kilos per EV using “ultra-nano-silicon.” As a materials company, SiLi-ion plans to sell this revolutionary material to battery manufacturers. Our platform not only outperforms competitors like Sila Nano, Group14, and OneD but is also less expensive to produce ($/kWh) compared to graphite and synthetic graphite. The material seamlessly integrates into existing LIB manufacturing lines for electric vehicles (EVs) and grid storage applications. Furthermore, it serves as an Inflation Reduction Act critical mineral replacement, enabling battery EV tax breaks for auto OEMs selling in the US.
