Sienza Energy, a Caltech-Incubated Battery Company, announces its 3D pure silicon anode gravimetric capacity.
Sienza Energy, a Caltech-incubated battery company backed by Los Angeles-based philanthropist Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong and Kairos ventures announced its capacity test results from an independent third-party lab showing its 3D pure silicon anode at 2,941 mAh/g.
Professor Mory Gharib, founder of Sienza Energy shared the independently verified results from Mobile Power Solutions stating: “. Sienza’s 3D pure silicon anode has demonstrated an average gravimetric capacity of 2,941 mAh/g. This means that for every gram of silicon, our batteries can store 2,941 milliampere-hours of electricity, significantly higher than the industry standard for graphite, with a gravimetric capacity of 372 mAh/g.
Sienza Energy’s unique 3D electrode nano-architecture, high energy and power density, and long cycle life, even at fast charging rates, combined with the use of high-quality silicon sets itself apart from current industry standards.
Dr. Azin Fahimi, The CTO of Sienza Energy, who has overseen this leading battery industry breakthrough, mentioned:
We are the first group to have designed and fabricated a 3D silicon-based anode that has both high energy density and excellent lifecycle.
Jim Demetriades, CEO of Kairos Ventures, and one of the first investors in Sienza Energy stated:
We are thrilled with the results of Sienza’s groundbreaking achievement. What Sienza has achieved significantly surpasses the average market standards for silicon.
Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, said:
We are delighted with this major scientific milestone.
He went on to say: “Sienza’s successful use of pure nano-silicon has created a new paradigm in battery technology thus enhancing Sienza’s overall performance.”
The Lithium-ion battery market is expected to reach $257 billion by 2030.
