Fra før vet vi at REC og det amerikanske Forsvarsdepartementet har vært i samtaler rundt silisium i batterier. Skal prøve å finne linken senere, mener det var noe TT snakket om under en Q-rapport.
Uansett, dagens nyhet:
Army Recharges Conformal Wearable Battery Design
Project Convergence will test a new battery design for IVAS.
During the U.S. Army’s Project Convergence 2021 experiment scheduled for October, researchers will assess silicon anode cells for its Conformal Wearable Battery to be used with the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) and the Nett Warrior system. The batteries double the power, allowing those systems to run much longer without increasing size and weight. Ultimately, the new cells could be used in a wide range of batteries for the military and commercial sectors, including those used to power tactical radios, electric cars and cellphones.

Enovix Set to Go Public Through a SPAC in Deal Valued at $1.1 Billion
Battery maker is building a factory in Fremont, Calif., to make batteries for wearable gadgets starting this year
Battery maker Enovix Corp. is poised to go public using a blank-check company in a deal valued at $1.1 billion, benefiting from investor enthusiasm for technology to improve battery performance as the world races toward electric vehicles.
Enovix said on Monday it raised $405 million through a merger with a special-purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, and associated private investment.
The company is building its first commercial factory, which will be ready to produce silicon lithium-ion batteries for customers later this year. The small-scale plant in Fremont, Calif., will make batteries for smaller devices such as radios and smartwatches. Enovix is scouting a location for a second factory that will also build batteries for smartphones, and aims to start selling batteries for electric vehicles after 2025.

Kommmentar: Batterier til wearables og andre gadgets trenger ikke samme produksjonskapasitet som til kjøretøy. En "smal scale plant" funker i Freemont, men neste steget opp må de flytte dit silanet kommer fra.
Jeg tror vi skal følge litt med på Enovix, det kan godt hende det blir ML neste.

NEO er ute med ny, meget lovende pressemelding om sine anoder. Rene silisiumanoder, som brytes ned under 25% etter 1000 sykluser!
Significant Results in Long-Term Cycling Ability and Mechanical Durability with NEO Battery’s 100% Silicon Anode Materials
Vancouver, British Columbia – March 29, 2021
Dr. Jong Hyeok Park, Director and Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of NEO Battery Materials Ltd. (TSXV: NBM) (“NEO” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that NEO has achieved breakthrough results in attaining a highly stable long-term cycling ability using 100% silicon (Si) anodes. The pure Si anode that does not contain graphite anode materials has been successful in demonstrating these results at automotive rates of charge and discharge for over 1000 cycles. With the help of NEO’s proprietary uniform nanocoating technology, the capacity decay, most importantly, was less than 25% after running 1000 cycles.
As Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, said, incorporating silicon into the anode of a Li-ion battery has the potential to improve energy density by 20–40%, extending the maximum range of vehicles by 20%. However, it is not easy to make an anode from 100% silicon nanoparticles that lasts over just one hundred cycles of charge and discharge.
Dr. Park commented, “Our patented elastomer nanocoating layer which has both electronic and ionic conductivity is able to compensate the mechanical stress of the Si anode during a long-term cycling test. Our technology effectively scatters the stress from the Si anode, allowing commercial level areal capacity of >2.0 mAh/cm2.”
“Currently, several evaluations for NMC/Si full cells are underway on NEO Si anode materials. NEO is continuing to develop Si anode material modification technology to manufacture innovative anode materials for next generation lithium-ion batteries at a low and scalable cost,” added Dr. Park.

NanoGraf unveils 3.8 Ah 18650 Li-ion cell, 800 Wh/L using silicon anode
NanoGraf, an advanced battery material company (earlier post), has enabled what it says is the highest energy density 18650 cylindrical lithium-ion cell in the world—one that provides a 28% longer run time than traditional cell chemistries.
Aided by funding from the US Department of Defense and others, NanoGraf’s team unveiled an 800 Wh/L silicon-anode based cell that provides benefits for virtually any application—from consumer electronics to electric vehicle batteries to the batteries that power the equipment soldiers use during operations.
NanoGraf’s technology utilizes a proprietary doped silicon alloy material architecture. The proprietary combination of silicon-based alloys and a protective inorganic and organic coating helps stabilize the active material during charge and discharge. NanoGraf technology was developed, optimized, and patented in collaboration with researchers at Northwestern University and Argonne National Laboratory.

New Diesel-Killing EV Batteries Put 30% Fuel Cut In US Army Sights
The US Department of Defense is eyeballing energy efficient trucks and silicon EV batteries to cut down on climate-killing fossil fuels.
In a shot across the bow of oil and gas stakeholders, the National Academy of Sciences calculates that the Army could shave 30% off its use of diesel and other hydrocarbon fuels right here and now, partly with the help of electric vehicles and other clean tech. As it so happens, a Department of Defense contractor called NanoGraf has just introduced a new silicon formula for EV batteries that could put the Army on track to beat the 30% mark sooner rather than later.

Tesla oppdatering om 4680 battericellene:
"still some work to do"
...
Tesla has been running a pilot factory for the new battery cell in Fremont where CEO Elon Musk has been guiding reaching a production capacity of 10 GWh by the end of 2021.
Today, with the release of its Q2 2021 financial results, Tesla released a rare update about its progress toward that goal:
We have successfully validated performance and lifetime of our 4680 cells produced at our Kato facility in California. We are nearing the end of manufacturing validation at Kato: field quality and yield are at viable levels and our focus is now on improving the 10% of manufacturing processes that currently bottleneck production output. While substantial progress has been made, we still have work ahead of us before we can achieve volume production. Internal crash testing of our structural pack architecture with a single-piece front casting has been successful.
In short, Tesla managed to get some progress done, but they still have more work to do before achieving any volume production.

Det later rett og slett til at silisium er mer stabilt i romtemperatur enn litium, og dermed bedre egnet som anodemateriale i faststoffbatterier. I så fall er det jo bare å lene seg tilbake, og se hvordan hele dette racet utvikler seg.

StoreDot secures $80 million in funding
Israeli battery developer StoreDot has announced the first close of its Series D funding round of up to $80 million, the majority of which has already been secured.
The main investor is the up-and-coming Vietnamese electric car manufacturer VinFast, with whom StoreDot had previously entered into a development cooperation. BP Ventures, the investment arm of the British oil company BP, and Golden Energy Global Investment are also participating in the financing round. Golden Energy Global Investment is fully owned by Liu Jincheng, the founder of EVE Energy, another cooperation partner of StoreDot.
The Israeli company had demonstrated an interim step in 2019 showcasing that their technology could charge the battery of an electric scooter in five minutes. The first development samples were demonstrated to potential partners in early 2021. Then, in May 2021, the cooperation with EVE Energy was announced, which includes the production of the cells from 2024.
According to StoreDot, the money from the D financing round will be used to develop the XFC battery cells. This refers to the company’s fast-charging electric car battery cells with a silicon-dominated anode, which should also enable high energy densities. “We are now properly funded to take our silicon-dominant XFC cells to the end of the R&D phase and into scale-up in readiness for mass production in 2024 for global vehicle manufacturers,” says StoreDot CEO Doron Myersdorf. “It will help overcome the major barrier to EV ownership – charging times – providing a 50% reduction, and, ultimately, helping us all achieve a zero-emissions, clean world.”
VinFast plans to use these battery cells in its vehicles. “Enhancing customer experience is our top priority,” says Pham Thuy Linh, deputy chief executive officer of VinFast. “StoreDot which is led by gifted scientists and experienced entrepreneurs, along with strong support from VinFast and other strategic investors, is believed to gear up for mass production globally in a very near term.”
StoreDot also says it will be able to ramp up its California R&D centre with the funding. StoreDot had announced the move in October.
