Nano One receives C$18 million to increase LFP cathode production in Canada

Canadian lithium-ion battery materials developer Nano One Materials has been granted C$18 million in financing from the Government of Québec to support the piloting of the company’s One-Pot process and increase production capacity at its Candiac plant. The financing includes a $15-million Canadian ($10.5-million US) loan from the Ministry of the Economy, Innovation and Energy… Read more »

Nano One demonstrates the advantages of its One-Pot LFP cathode production process

Battery cathode active materials (CAM) developer Nano One Materials has conducted a study with chemical processing company Worley Chemetics to demonstrate the economic advantages of Nano One’s patented One-Pot process for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode production. The comparative analysis showed that One-Pot could reduce total invested capital costs and operational costs of two 25,000-tonne-per-year… Read more »

Umicore and Nano One partner to develop production process tech for battery materials

Circular materials technology company Umicore and clean technology company Nano One Materials have signed a nonexclusive joint development agreement (JDA) on production process technologies for cathode active materials (CAM) for lithium-ion batteries. Umicore will evaluate Nano One’s patented M2CAM One-Pot process technology with the intention of integrating it with Umicore’s proprietary process technology for the… Read more »

Euro Manganese’s metal validated for Nano One’s cathode production process

Battery materials company Euro Manganese has announced that pilot plant samples of its HPEMM manganese metal have been validated as feedstock for battery cathode specialist Nano One’s One-Pot and M2CAM cathode production technologies. The samples were produced at the Chvaletice Manganese Project in the Czech Republic. “Euro Manganese’s production process, which has the flexibility to… Read more »

Nano One buys North American LFP cell production facility

Battery cathode materials specialist Nano One has announced the acquisition of Johnson Matthey Battery Materials (JMBM), a Canadian company that operates one of the few LFP cathode production facilities in North America. Nano One will acquire all of the outstanding shares of JMBM for a total of $10.25 million Canadian ($8 million US). The deal… Read more »

Nano One secures patent on high-energy NMC cathode powders

Nano One Materials has secured a US patent for its NMC cathode powders, which it says offer a proprietary means of making Li-ion batteries more durable, safer and cheaper. NMC cathodes are typically comprised of lithium, nickel, manganese and cobalt. Global battery makers are keen to limit the use of cobalt, which has a dodgy… Read more »

Canada funds Nano One’s Li-ion durability improvement research

The National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP) has granted Nano One’s “Coatings for High Durability Lithium-ion Battery Cathodes” project $349,000 in non-dilutive and non-repayable funds. The project is intended to study various coatings and dopants that can reduce or remove instabilities in cathode materials. Nano One intends to focus its resources… Read more »

Nano One says it can produce Li-ion materials faster and cheaper, wins $1.9-million investment

Canada’s Innovation, Science and Economic Development program plans to invest up to $1.9 million in Vancouver-based Nano One, which currently produces energy storage materials and a range of nanostructured composite materials. The funding will support a pilot plant that will simulate full-scale production of lithium-ion cathode materials and showcase Nano One’s processing technology. Some promising… Read more »

Graphene battery pioneer Nanotech Energy raises $27.5 million in Series C funding

Los Angeles-based Nanotech Energy, a major supplier of graphene, has raised $27.5 million in a Series C funding round. The company’s US-made Nanotech Energy Graphene Super Battery is designed to be non-flammable, and Nanotech claims it will deliver better longevity and much faster charging than current batteries. “We are confident that we have a one-of-a-kind,… Read more »
