    Solutions for Clean
    Energy Objectives

    New battery technologies R&D, such as lithium-sulfur and sodium-ion batteries, zinc battery storage systems, and much more.

    Energy and climate change requires new green and clean energy - around 90% of the world now has net zero-emission targets in place, and these are becoming progressively more ambitious.

    Move away from unabated coal power generation, focusing on the UN Sustainable Development Goal of providing "access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all" by 2030. A clean energy world brings the issue of metal supply into sharp focus, increasing the demand for many metals – cobalt, lithium, nickel, aluminum, and copper.

    The world needs cheap and powerful batteries that can store sustainably produced electricity from wind or sunlight so that we can use it whenever we need it.

    Battery production has large opportunities in near-by areas, with high growth potential expected over the next decade. While recycling is in its infancy, it is expected to grow significantly as the industry develops.

    Through our value proposition, we offer customised solutions in innovation research to meet technically evolving demand applications on new materials and cell developments.
