Lyten

Yesterday, Lyten had the honor of hosting a visit from a bipartisan Congressional Delegation of over 30 members and staff of the House Armed Services Committee (#HASC). Our CEO, Dan Cook, Chief Battery Technology Officer, Celina Mikolajczak, President of Lyten Federal LtGen(Ret) Eric Fick, and Chief Sustainability Officer, Keith Norman guided the delegation through our Lithium-Sulfur and 3D Graphene manufacturing facilities, showcasing our high-performance battery technology. The delegation engaged in a productive dialogue on how the U.S. can maintain energy independence without relying on foreign-dominated supply chains. This is precisely where Lyten's Lithium-Sulfur battery technology stands out, using sulfur, lithium, and 3D graphene as the main ingredients in our batteries. U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee,?and other members expressed strong interest in how Lyten's innovative approach can leverage standard battery-making equipment with only minor modifications, enabling the production of batteries domestically—without relying on Nickel, Manganese, Cobalt (NMC), graphite, or materials sourced globally, primarily from China. Chairman Rogers delivered these remarks earlier in the day about why they came to #SiliconValley: (full press release: https://lnkd.in/g_E7DhaV) “We chose to come to Silicon Valley to hear directly from America’s leading innovators about solutions to a problem that has vexed the Department of Defense for decades.?Make no mistake - these [other countries] capabilities are being developed specifically to defeat our military. We cannot let that happen. We can’t let China or any adversary outpace us on innovation. Fortunately, the United States has something our adversaries do not – a robust innovation ecosystem.?There is no shortage of innovative Americans, especially here in Silicon Valley, with the ideas and know-how to keep us ahead of our adversaries.?We must take better advantage of this.” Lyten is honored to have been chosen as a stop on the House Armed Services Committee’s recent visit to California and to demonstrate how we are leading the way in advancing U.S. energy independence with innovative technologies. We extend our gratitude to the HASC members for including Lyten in their visit: Chairman Mike Rogers (R-AL) Ranking Member Adam Smith (D-WA) Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) Rep. Trent Kelly (R-MS) Rep. Michael Waltz (R-FL) Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-FL) Rep. Brad Finstad (R-MN) Rep. Jennifer Kiggans (R-VA) Rep. James Moylan (R-Guam) Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA) Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) Rep.

From PCMag: "Next-Gen Batteries in Space? NASA to Test Lithium-Sulfur In Suits, Satellites. The long-lasting, lightweight batteries made by Lyten could extend astronauts' extravehicular activity from 4 to 8 hours, and power the growing number of low earth orbit satellites." Read full article: https://lnkd.in/gadU3HVp Lyten batteries are already set to power drones, the company?announced?in August, and potentially?electric cars?and consumer electronics in the future. The company successfully?validated?its mass production process in March, and the batteries are manufactured in the US with locally sourced materials, a contrast to the majority Chinese-made packs available today. #Lyten #PCMAG #NextGenBatteries #LithiumSulfur #Space #NASA #InternationalSpaceStation #Aerospace #Sustainability

Today, the Silicon Valley Business Journal published "Five Questions With Lyten CEO Dan Cook," where Dan shares the incredible journey of Lyten and the groundbreaking discovery of Lyten 3D Graphene—a supermaterial with the potential to transform industries like transportation, shipping, aviation, and space! From our beginnings in a small facility in Sunnyvale to establishing the first 3D Graphene lab in San Jose, we've been on an incredible path of innovation and growth. As Dan highlights in the interview, our focus is now on commercialization—bringing our advanced lithium-sulfur batteries and other game-changing technologies to market. Huge thanks to Mayor Matt Mahan and the supportive team in San Jose for helping us grow and thrive in this vibrant community. ??

ONSHORING BATTERY PRODUCTION: Bringing #ElectricVehicle battery manufacturing operations back to the U.S., E.U. and other countries worldwide sounds great, but cannot be successful without a different #SupplyChain. Energy storage is an #economic security and national #security issue. It ensures self-sovereign access to power in an electrified society, but that is only true if we are NOT dependent on a single country to supply the raw materials to make batteries. Lithium-Sulfur batteries' resource accessibility not only plays a huge role in improving the environmental landscape, but the geopolitical one as well. Read how Lyten is using 3D Graphene supermaterials to enable batteries with abundant, local supply chains. https://lyten.com #Lyten #EVBattery #Production #Onshore #Sustainability

Race To Clear The Shelters! I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to my colleagues and friends at Lyten who dedicated their Saturday morning to serving runners and festival-goers cold brew coffee and selling merch. Thanks to your efforts, we were able to donate $500 to Pets In Need Animal Shelter in Redwood City and Palo Alto. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for driving to Fremont so early in the morning and giving these animals a chance at life. It means the world to me and, more importantly, to the animals that need help the most! Your support truly made a difference, and for that, I am incredibly grateful! ??????#ClearTheShelters
