Paraclete Energy Unveils Comprehensive Study on SILO Silicon™: Pioneering a 50% Weight Reduction while Doubling EV Battery Driving Range
CHELSEA, MI. December 3, 2024 – Paraclete Energy, Inc., a leading provider of advanced battery technology, today announced the results of a comprehensive study on its proprietary SILO Silicon™ technology. This study demonstrates the potential of SILO Silicon™ to revolutionize electric vehicle (EV) battery design by reducing weight by 50% while simultaneously doubling the driving range—a major step forward in advancing environmentally friendly transportation.
Jeff Norris, CEO of Paraclete Energy, stated:
As a company dedicated to pushing the boundaries of battery innovation, our latest study underscores SILO Silicon™’s potential to redefine the EV landscape,
“Our data-driven approach demonstrates not only substantial reductions in battery weight and size but also a remarkable increase in driving range. These advancements address critical consumer demands for more efficient, affordable, and sustainable electric vehicles.”
The comprehensive study reveals that utilizing SILO Silicon™ allows for a standard 80 kWh battery pack to be downsized from approximately 7,000 individual batteries weighing 565 kg to fewer than 2,000 batteries weighing just 150 kg. This 73% weight reduction significantly enhances vehicle performance and efficiency while still achieving the same driving range. Furthermore, a 300 kg battery pack configuration utilizing SILO Silicon™ delivers 160 kWh of power, effectively doubling the standard driving range from 290 miles to over 580 miles while reducing battery weight by 50%.
SILO Silicon™ directly addresses two of the most pressing barriers to EV adoption: cost and range anxiety. By minimizing the size and weight of battery packs, manufacturing costs are substantially lowered, while the enhanced energy density ensures longer driving distances. These findings position SILO Silicon™ as a pivotal technology in accelerating the mainstream adoption of electric vehicles.
Norris added,
We believe that SILO Silicon™ not only meets but exceeds industry standards, providing a viable path forward for EV manufacturers seeking to deliver superior products to consumers.
