Energy density is widely considered the most important metric of a battery technology. It determines the size and weight of the battery system. Higher energy density translates into smaller, lighter battery systems or applications with longer run-times or ranges.
Electrovaya’s technology is primarily characterized by superior energy density. Its nanostructured Lithium Ion SuperPolymer® platform technology provides a faster, more efficient transport of lithium. This equates to its ability to pack more energy into smaller and lighter spaces.
As a result of its intrinsic energy density advantage, Electrovaya is able to optimize its technology for balanced energy-power density with little apparent trade-off. Its balanced optimization offers superior energy density with excellent power density.
Notes:
(1) Lithium batteries have been historically optimized either for high energy (e.g. for the consumer laptop or cellphone market where longer runtimes are a premium) or for high power (e.g. for the power tool or hybrid vehicle market where brief, high power pulses are a premium).
(2) The normalized units of energy density measurement are Wh/kg, gravimetric, and Wh/L, volumetric. Gravimetric comparisons are used more frequently due to greater calculation precision.
