Saint-Gobain and addionics to develop high-power, high-capacity solid-state batteries for long-range, fast-charging EV. Saint-Gobain, the global technical material expert, will partner with the Israeli battery technology start-up Addionics to develop next generation solid-state lithium-ion batteries with novel electrode components under the Israel – US BIRD Energy program.

The partnership aims to offer major improvements in EV battery performance, such as longer driving range, fast charging, enhanced safety and lower production costs.

The Technology

Saint-Gobain’s initial technological breakthrough with its novel solid-state battery components enables safer battery operation and low-cost manufacturing by simplifying the production flow and eliminating intermediate processes.

Saint-Gobain’s electrolytes have demonstrated high Li-ion conductivity comparable with the state-of-the-art solid electrolytes and offer additional potential performance, manufacturing and economic benefits.

Addionics’ smart 3D electrode technology enables enhanced electrical current collection across the volume of thick battery electrodes and improved material usage leading to a boost in battery energy density and cycle life, as already demonstrated in more conventional battery platforms.

Addionics’ technology also helps solve the interfacial resistance issues commonly observed in solid-state batteries.
