Circular Economy
Addionics’ unique manufacturing process for anode copper collectors uses scraps of copper, helping the industry save natural resources and prevent emissions associated with mining and refining this metal. As copper demand rises with the growth of electrification, the supply and price of copper are becoming major issues for the industry and nations. Efforts are being made to meet demand and reduce the environmental impact.
We use 100% recycled copper to produce our advanced 3D anode Current Collectors
Minimizing Resource Dependence for aGreener Future
Addionics’ innovative solution, which can work with both recycled copper and aluminum, reduces copper usage by 60%, enhancing cost-effectiveness and sustainability by minimizing reliance on this critical resource. Through optimized battery architecture, Addionics significantly decreases the environmental impact associated with battery production, reducing emissions per battery pack across various chemistries.
The technology enables highly efficient manufacturing processes, leading to a significantly lower carbon footprint per square meter of foil produced. This energy-efficient approach aligns with circular economy principles, enhancing production efficiency while reducing resource consumption. Additionally, Addionics’ battery architecture contributes to weight reduction in the final battery pack, translating to a lower carbon footprint and reinforcing circular economy ideals.
Green Impact
Addionics’ green impact spans across the entire industry and production chain. The technology reduces EV battery emissions by increasing their range, improving charging times, prolonging lifetime, creating a more efficient and environmentally-friendly manufacturing process, and cutting up to 60% of copper and aluminum in the battery cell.
These benefits are all expected to have further emission-reduction implications, supporting the global effort of decarbonization.
Reducing Carbon Footprint through Smart Manufacturing
Addionics’ process is more environmentally friendly as it reduces embodied emissions in manufacturing by utilizing a more efficient approach that leverages AI capabilities and a faster, energy-efficient drying method. Furthermore, its high energy density improves efficiency, enabling the reduction of layers and material usage in batteries.
By improving vehicle efficiency and prolonging battery life, it reduces the frequency of battery replacements and supports the generation of less waste.
