We’ve invented the first battery-ready pure lithium metal electrode made from a variety of inexpensive, available lithium salts. We use electrons to create ultra-thin lithium metal electrodes for next-generation batteries. Our technology eliminates 90% of the costs involved with traditional lithium metal foil production and, for the first time, produces a protected battery-ready electrode of unprecedented quality and purity paving the way to lithium metal batteries for less than $50 kWh.
