Swiss energy storage firm Leclanché will evaluate Australian firm Talga Resources’ range of graphene silicon anode products with the intention of developing commercial products for the lithium-ion battery industry.
The move follows the signing a memorandum of understanding that includes trials to run over a 2-6 month period, and indicative pricing for various volumes of Talnode supply, during the trials and over a three year period.
The Company will release further updates as and when any definitive commercial agreements are reached.
Two weeks ago BEST Battery Briefing reported that Talga was part of a consortium working toward developing a graphite-based anode to allow solid-state batteries to meet the performance demands required by electric vehicles.
The project will replace metallic lithium anodes in solid-state batteries with consortium partner Talga Technologies’ graphite carbon anode Talnode-E product. Talga Technologies is a subsidiary of Australian firm Talga Resources’,
