Amprius Technologies, Inc., a provider in next-generation lithium-ion batteries, announced a new SiCore cell as part of its expanding Silicon Anode (SiCore) Platform.
Designed to advance high-performance electric mobility, the SiCore platform uses a proprietary silicon anode material system to deliver the best-known commercially available energy and power performance in one cell.
The new SiCore cell offers unparalleled power-to-energy capabilities for high-demand applications. With an impressive energy density of 370 Wh/kg, the SiCore cell extends runtimes while delivering high-power performance exceeding 3000 W/kg.
The cell’s advanced design supports high discharge rates of up to 10C without cooling and 15C with active cooling, ensuring quick power delivery without compromising runtime.
The SiCore cell is ideal for aviation, including drones, and high-performance electric vehicle applications that require endurance and rapid energy delivery. It’s expected to set new standards for applications operating in the most demanding conditions.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, pre-production 10Ah samples were delivered to six of Amprius’ customers, enabling real-world testing in challenging environments. This early access ensures the SiCore cell meets industry standards ahead of its planned commercialization in the first quarter of 2025.
