Innolith: we will be the first with a battery with a specific energy of 1 kWh / kg

Swiss startup Innolith AG has announced that it has begun work on lithium-ion cells that can achieve a specific energy of 1 kWh / kg. For comparison: the limit of our capabilities is now about 0,25-0,3 kWh / kg, and the first attacks on the regions of 0,3-0,4 kWh / kg are already underway.

An energy density of 1 kWh / kg is the dream of most smartphone users, although not everyone knows about it 🙂 For example: the cells (batteries) of the most advanced modern phones today reach about 0,25-0,28 kWh / kg. If the energy density were four times greater, a cell with the same mass (and volume) could power a smartphone for four days instead of just one. Of course, such a battery would also require four times the charge ...

But Innolith is more focused on the automotive industry. Company officials say directly that the Innolith Energy Battery will “charge an electric vehicle up to a distance of 1 kilometer,” which assumes the capacity of a typical electric vehicle between 000-200 kWh. Of course, the Innolith product is rechargeable and priced low due to “no expensive ingredients and the use of non-flammable electrolytes” (source).

The cells, created by the Swiss startup, will create the first non-flammable lithium-ion battery suitable for use in the automotive industry. All thanks to inorganic electrolytes, which will replace existing combustible organic electrolytes. Cell production is expected to begin in Germany, but development will take another three to five years.
