Introduction

Electrification of transport and transition to renewable energy generation are essential to cut our carbon emissions in half by 2030. Batteries are a key component to allow this change. But they also remain a major bottleneck in the scaling of green technologies.

Challenges in Battery Production

Battery production relies on raw materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel, all of which are already in short supply. Yet the green boom is just beginning. To enable our green future, the battery industry needs a revolution.

Innovative Solution

BroadBit has developed fundamentally new sodium-based battery technology for high-performance batteries made from low-cost and widely available raw materials. We have redesigned the entire battery chemistry and developed a new safe and clean dry production process.

Project Goals

With the help of EIC, we will:

  1. Finalize our cell chemistry.
  2. Fine-tune the production processes.
  3. Strengthen partnerships to consistently reach commercial quality and cycle life targets required for successful market introduction and scale-up.
