Sakuu® and ELEQTRION Announce Plans to Advance Aluminum-Ion Battery Technology for Energy Storage and other applications
SAN JOSE, CALIF. — (October 22, 2024) — Sakuu®, a leading provider of commercial-scale equipment and technologies to the battery manufacturing industry, today announced a joint development agreement with ELEQTRION, a Quebec-based innovator in aluminum-ion battery technology. By leveraging Sakuu’s Kavian™ platform and ELEQTRION’s unique battery electrode, the partnership aims to advance the development of aluminum-ion batteries for small to large-scale energy storage solutions and e-mobility applications. The partnership will benefit from Kavian’s cost efficiency and reduced carbon footprint.
Sakuu’s Kavian platform offers unparalleled flexibility, scalability, and sustainability in battery production, with the ability to manufacture batteries using a variety of chemistries, including aluminum-ion. Aluminum-ion is emerging as a powerful choice in material for batteries, especially for applications in large-scale energy storage, due to its high energy density, safety, and abundance.
Robert Bagheri, founder and CEO at Sakuu, said :
Our Kavian platform is designed to enable manufacturing innovation for high volume manufacturers as well as the most disruptive companies using cutting edge technology,
“Our partnership with ELEQTRION is a testament to the platform’s versatility. Together, we will explore how Kavian can be used to produce aluminum-ion batteries at scale, offering a cleaner and more efficient solution for energy storage needs around the world.”
With a growing global demand for reliable, sustainable energy storage, the development of alternative battery chemistries is critical. The joint development plan agreed between Sakuu and ELEQTRION will explore how these aluminum-ion batteries can be deployed and how they can enhance the efficiency and sustainability for energy storage systems in industrial, residential, and grid-scale applications among other applications.
William Reynold, CEO at ELEQTRION, said:
Our partnership with Sakuu marks a major milestone in the development of our innovative battery alternative and towards industrialization,
“By harnessing the power of aluminum-ion batteries, we’re taking a significant step toward creating energy systems that are not only more sustainable but safer and also more adaptable to the future’s growing demands.”
