Innovative Absolute Power™ Production Facility
THE BEGINNING
The inception of the Innovative Absolute Power™ solid-state battery stems from a profound understanding of the limitations inherent in current lithium-ion battery technology. Traditional NCM (Nickel, Cobalt, and Manganese) lithium-ion batteries, while widely used, engender substantial safety concerns due to their utilization of liquid electrolytes, rendering them highly flammable. Although the NCM combination confers commendable energy density, it falls short when it comes to safety. Sodium ion batteries emerged as a substitute for conventional lithium-ion cells, offering greater safety without compromising energy density, resulting in lesser weight and bulkiness.
At Innovative Packaging, LP, the parent company of Innovative Absolute Power™, our engineers recognized the imperative of a safer and more efficient alternative, with sodium ion solid-state technology emerging as the much-anticipated next leap in the realm of lithium-ion batteries. Consequently, we embarked on the arduous quest to develop a sodium ion solid-state pouch-cell battery, which replaces the liquid electrolyte with a solid counterpart, thus enabling a safer and denser cell.
