Increasing EV battery performance while lowering cost? That’s the goal of OneD Battery Sciences. With a breakthrough technology known as SINANODE, the company is successfully adding more energy-dense silicon into the anodes of lithium-ion EV batteries to increase efficiency and affordability.

Why silicon? Because it can store ten times the energy of graphite alone—yet previous attempts to include more in the anode have failed due to expansion and breakage. By eliminating these issues, SINANODE unlocks silicon’s full potential to advance the production of competitive EVs that meet market demand. The company has even partnered with GM for joint R&D of silicon anode technology for more efficient EV batteries.

CVD Equipment Corporation (NASDAQ: CVV), a leading provider of chemical vapor deposition and thermal process equipment, announced today that they received a second production system order from U.S. based, electric vehicle battery material technology provider, OneD Battery Sciences, for a PowderCoat1104™ system and components for approximately $1.8 million in May 2023.

Vincent Pluvinage, CEO of silicon anode developer OneD Battery Sciences, is on a rant: His fellow next-generation battery makers, he says, are overpromising a future of cheap, faster-charging, long-distance electric vehicles. Pluvinage says automakers will be reluctant to adopt these technologies after sinking billions of dollars into factories devoted to conventional lithium-ion and graphite batteries. As a result, he says, his rivals won’t achieve the high sales they predict this decade, but will be relegated to the niche premium and ultraluxury segments.

OneD Battery Sciences (“OneD”), the leader in silicon-based automotive battery technology, today announces the addition of two proven industry and sector experts. Jan-Marc Luchies, PhD, joins OneD from Infineon as COO, and Ron Lopez, JD, joins the company’s senior management team as General Counsel & CLO (Chief Licensing Officer). Lopez was previously a partner at Nixon Peabody, an international law firm, and served as OneD’s external counsel since 2014.

The battery-electric-vehicle race continues to heat up. In 2022, the auto industry saw not only a significant uptick in BEV sales but also an increased focus from OEMs on bringing costs down.

The need to make BEVs more affordable is obvious: The majority of car buyers cannot afford today’s models, which are priced higher than most internal-combustion-engine vehicles. Fortunately, the U.S. has seen recent regulatory changes, although the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) can provide tax credits only if batteries contain enough materials sourced locally.

Wine pressed from grapes growing in vineyards worked by self-driving, electric tractors, batteries that last longer but cost less, expanded model choices, wider recharging options, broader fleet adoption and tightly targeted spending by venture capitalists. Those are all present, in the works or coming as the world’s inevitable drive into an electric future accelerates.

Higher energy density, lower costs, faster charging: For its batteries, GM relies on the nanotechnology of OneD Battery – the start-up of a Silicon Valley veteran.

  • Battery technology is what the combustion chamber used to be: it is the great differentiator for OEMs
  • KT Neumann has seen an array of manufacturing processes used, but none compare to what OneD’s SINANODE platform achieves in directly addressing drivers’ needs
  • OneD has created the only manufacturing process that simplifies the process of using silicon technology to create more efficient and cost-effective EV batteries

Battery technology plays a vital role in the development and growth of electric vehicles. OneD Battery Sciences, a leader in EV battery technology, introduced SINANODE, a type of technology that shows promise for the future of silicon-based EV batteries. The SINANODE process fuses silicon nanowires onto graphite powders. OneD Battery Sciences claims this technology triples the energy density of the anode and cuts costs per kWh in half. When a battery has a higher energy density, it can increase its range and the nanowires shorten charging time. Optimizing performance and reducing costs can greatly benefit the EV industry and support EV adoption.

Charging an EV battery is simply storing electrons and lithium ions in the appropriate electrode of the cells in the battery pack. Today, almost all the anode electrodes store electrical energy in natural or synthetic graphite particles coated onto the current collector in large EV cell factories. A few leading EV models (for example Tesla Y, Tesla 3, and Porsche Taycan) contain a small amount (a few percentage points) of silicon oxide additives mixed with the graphite, to increase the cells energy and power density, hence increasing EV range and charging speed for a better driving experience versus graphite-only EVs.

OneD Battery Sciences, leaders in electric vehicle (EV) battery technology, today announced it has begun construction of its first pilot plants in Moses Lake, WA. The plants will enable each EV maker to customize and optimize silicon-graphite anodes for use in their upcoming advanced lithium-ion EV batteries using OneD’s patented SINANODE technology process.

The battery fires in some Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicles have caused a jolt among the more than 600 companies at this week’s The Battery Show in Novi, Mich. near Detroit. Just as automakers step up EV production and try to convince consumers battery-powered vehicles are safe, companies involved in producing and testing cells are digging in to say they’re doing everything they can to provide peace of mind among consumers through advance technologies. view youtube video >

OneD Battery Sciences Unveils SINANODE, The Next Generation of Electric Vehicle Battery Technology

PALO ALTO, Calif. OneD Battery Sciences, leaders in EV battery technology, today announced SINANODE, a breakthrough technology to power the next generation of EV batteries. To build a battery with more silicon, a longtime challenge for the EV industry, SINANODE seamlessly integrates into existing manufacturing processes to fuse silicon nanowires onto commercial graphite powders, tripling the energy density of the anode while halving its cost per kWh. The higher energy density increases battery range while nanowires shorten charging time, enabling OEMs to design and produce electric vehicles that answer the booming market demand for better batteries.
