High-energy batteries are on with nano-porous silicon

With climate change a key issue in the world today, electrification of mobility is rising fast. Restricted range, charging speed and cost are standing in the way of wide scale EV adoption. Today's batteries use graphite as an active anode material, whereas silicon has up to ten times more capacity. Until now, the transition to silicon was hindered because silicon can swell and break when charged.

At E-magy, we supply nano-porous silicon for high-energy batteries. Our unique specialty silicon overcomes the swelling challenge by containing the expansion within the nanopores themselves, as validated by ZSW, a leading institute for applied battery research. We make high-energy silicon-dominant anodes a reality, compatible with existing production lines and are ready to scale up.

Since 2013, we have been developing our solution in our cutting edge production facility near Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The team consists of driven, advanced materials specialists with over 20 years of silicon crystallisation experience. Cooperating with more than a dozen leading automotive and battery manufacturers, we bring our clients winning battery performance. We are part of multiple leading European battery associations and consortia to bring the industry forward. As ultimately, our dream is for everyone to enjoy the benefits of clean, electrically powered mobility.
