PRODUCTS FEATURES

The new cobalt-free battery surpasses the capabilities of existing lithium-ion batteries in a number of individual categories including lower costs, faster charging time, higher power and energy density, strong energy efficiency and low flammability.

COBALT FREE

Our active cathode materials cost less because they are free of cobalt, nickel, and other heavy metals. These heavy metal materials are typically very resource-intensive to source, and also have raised concerns over their sustainability.

IMPROVED SAFETY

Discovered in IBM Research’s Battery Lab, our design uses a cobalt and nickel-free cathode material, as well as a safe liquid electrolyte with a high flash point.

FAST CHARGING

The proprietary new battery chemistry enables fast charging - less than five minutes required to reach an 80 percent state of charge (SOC), without compromising specific discharge capacity.

HIGH PERFORMANCE

High Power density: More than 10,000 W/L.

High Energy density: More than 800 Wh/L.

Excellent energy efficiency: More than 90 percent.

LONG LIFE

IBM tests have shown this battery can be designed for a long-life cycle, making it an option for smart power grid applications and new energy infrastructures where longevity and stability is key.
