Description

Company presentation

The company is a British company at the forefront of innovative structural battery technology, designed to improve safety, make vehicles lighter, more robust, and reduce costs. Led by battery, renewable energy, and business development specialists, it offers a solution that integrates high-energy-density cylindrical cells directly into the vehicle chassis. This approach eliminates unnecessary chassis mass and achieves up to 300 Wh/kg, compared to approximately 30 Wh/kg for conventional structural batteries.

The technology is distinguished by: - Advanced thermal management limiting the risks of thermal runaway; - Significant weight reduction thanks to structural integration; - Mechanical strength 3.5 times greater than that of equivalent steel frames; - Compatibility with different battery chemistries; - Modular design facilitating maintenance and repair; - Use of standard cell formats, optimizing production costs.

Designed for deployment in various sectors such as automotive, aeronautics and maritime, this solution combines performance, security and scalability.

The company is seeking partners to help develop and commercialize its structural battery technology for electric vehicles (EVs), eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft, and maritime transportation.

It wishes to collaborate with: - Battery manufacturers; - Equipment manufacturers (manufacturers or parts suppliers); - Research institutes.

These partners can participate in joint projects, grant applications, or co-investments. The company is particularly interested in those who have already developed battery technologies but are experiencing difficulties bringing them to market.

It is looking for experts in the following fields: - Integration of batteries in vehicles (EV, eVTOL, boats); - Design and manufacturing of structural batteries; - Lightweight and innovative materials for energy storage.

Partnerships can take the form of research, cooperation or shared funding agreements.
