Xerion Advanced Battery Corp

We are delighted to announce that Xerion co-Founder and CEO John Busbee will be a featured speaker at Rho Motion Live: North America, taking place in Columbus on October 2-3. During his session, titled “A New Manufacturing Platform for the Battery Supply Chain of Tomorrow”, Dr. Busbee will explore several key topics: ▪️ The need for advancement of a robust domestic lithium-ion battery supply chain in the U.S. ▪️ Xerion’s core technology platform, which leverages a breakthrough manufacturing platform and a novel new battery architecture to significantly reduce the cost of high-performance lithium-ion batteries ▪️ Technologies aimed at the low-cost extraction of critical minerals, such as lithium and cobalt, from domestic geothermal brine and other waste sources, such as recycled batteries and mining waste, to name a few. It’s set to be an insightful couple of days filled with engaging discussions around the energy transition, led by key players across the EV & battery, ESS, EV charging, recycling, and finance sectors.   Read our press release here: https://lnkd.in/e7-C7BXm #EVEvent #Battery #Energy #EnergyStorage #BatteryManufacturing #BatteryMaterials #BatterySupplyChain #LithiumIon #Manufacturing #RhoMotion #EnergyTransition

Congratulations to Xerion investor TechMet Ltd on their recent announcement of a significant investment by the Qatar Investment Authority to support efforts to advance battery materials supply chains. Xerion is proud to be a member of the TechMet family and looks forward to seeing what the future holds for this exciting partnership. Like TechMet, Xerion is dedicated to the development of a strong domestic battery supply chain. Our lithium-ion batteries are low-cost, deliver a wide range of performance advantages over counterparts on the market today, and offer a 40% lower carbon footprint, all while using less pure, 100% domestically sourced battery precursors and allowing for the recycling of end-of-life batteries, eliminating the need to import battery materials from overseas markets. World-class investors like TechMet are confident that technologies like ours hold the key to unlocking the potential of a strong U.S. battery supply chain. #battery #batterytechnology #batterychemistry #lithiumion #batterymanufacturing #cleanenergy #storage #energystorage #energytransition #batteryinnovation #energy #investing #energyinvesting #supplychain

Congratulations to the team at LinkTrak on their recent announcement with Walt Disney Parks & Resorts. LinkTrak’s ultrathin smart label, which can track, monitor, and automate reporting of the location and conditions of packages in real time, promises to play an integral role in Disney’s best-in-class food safety practices, and Xerion is proud to play a role in the partnership.

Today, we are pleased to announce the appointment of Jim Thompson as Chief Financial Officer. Jim brings decades of experience in fundraising, corporate finance and M&A across battery, renewable energy, and manufacturing sectors to Xerion, and will be an invaluable member of our leadership team.    Jim’s leadership and expertise will be crucial as we pursue the commercialization of our revolutionary lithium-ion battery architecture and manufacturing process, which combine to deliver a dramatically lower-cost lithium-ion battery with higher energy density, higher power, faster charge, longer life, improved safety and 40% lower carbon emissions than conventional battery manufacturing.   READ MORE: https://lnkd.in/ez3w3BYs   #battery #batterytech #batteryinnovation #lithium #lithiumion #supplychain #batterychemistry #batterymanufacturing #cleanenergy #storage #energystorage #energytransition #energy

“An under-discussed element of the ever-growing demand for lithium-ion batteries is ensuring that procuring critical battery materials, such as lithium and cobalt, remains sustainable. Demand for these materials is far outstripping supply, as the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported that the global demand for lithium tripled between 2017 and 2022, and it is projected to double again by 2030. With that increased demand comes increasing importance to optimize sustainability.” In a recent article for Innovation News Network, Xerion Founder & CEO John Busbee discusses the battery supply chain innovations that are necessary to meet decarbonization goals. At Xerion, we are committed to improving the performance and cost of lithium-ion batteries while minimizing environmental impact and securing domestic supply chains for critical materials like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese.   READ MORE: https://lnkd.in/eAa9vzK2 #battery #batterytech #batteryinnovation #lithium #lithiumion #supplychain #batterychemistry #batterymanufacturing #cleanenergy #storage #energystorage #energytransition #energy

Xerion CEO John Busbee and CTO Paul Braun recently sat down with David Banmiller, host of the Interchange Recharged podcast to discuss the need for continued innovation of lithium extraction techniques to improve environmental and capital costs associated with the lithium-ion battery supply chain as the industry scales production to meet skyrocketing demand. Xerion is committed to the development of a strong U.S. battery materials supply chain that leverages domestically available resources, reducing our reliance on the harmful environmental impacts and volatility of convoluted international supply chains.
