Sakuu Corporation, based in San Jose, US, has launched its Li-Metal Cypress cell chemistry for licensing to all battery manufacturers interested in the technology for roll-to-roll manufacturing.
The company says its cell chemistry delivers high power (8C pulse discharge, 3C continuous discharge) with an energy density of 750+ Wh/l. Certification procedures are underway with industry-standard UN and UL testing in progress. 5Ah pouch cells are available from Sakuu’s Silicon Valley pilot line facility.
The additive manufacturing and battery technology company is creator of the Kavian platform solution for the commercial-scale production of next-generation batteries.
Sakuu Founder and CEO Robert Bagheri said, “Our proprietary lithium-metal battery chemistry delivers key cell performance and safety attributes that enable a new paradigm in battery manufacturing and energy storage.”
Sakuu Senior Vice President Arwed Niestroj said, “The compatibility with 3D-printing will further enhance the effective use of battery packaging volume with new and unique approaches to thermal management. Li-Metal cells have advantages that Sakuu has made attainable, scalable, and safe. Manufacturers can now license this technology.”
