Battery technology start-up Addionics has announced the launch of its new state-of-the-art pilot line for the manufacture of its advanced Smart 3D Electrodes™. The company is dedicated to expanding its technological developments, with support from its partners, primarily for the automotive industry, including global leading automakers and tier 1 suppliers.
The new site, inaugurated in February 2023, covers over 1,500 sq. ft and will serve as the company’s headquarters, in addition to its existing locations in the US, UK, and Germany. The facility features office space for over 50 employees, advanced laboratories, and a pilot line designed to accelerate the development and production of Addionics’ chemistry-agnostic Smart 3D Electrodes™ technology. The technology is used to improve all key performance metrics for batteries, including energy density, power, safety, and lifetime, all without increasing costs.

Addionics is already working with top global companies to integrate its product, matching the ever-rising global battery demand driven by the growing EV market. The new facility has a current capacity to produce up to 10kWh, which will increase to about 100kWh by the end of 2024. Addionics expects to reach 1 GWh production capability by 2025.
Addionics has been recently recognized for its technology’s potential to accelerate global decarbonization and halt climate change. Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) selected Addionics as a 2022 Pioneer for its innovative 3D design for electrodes that is compatible with any battery chemistry, existing or emerging. The 3D structure leads to improvements in key battery performance metrics.
Addionics’ patented core IP is a cost-effective and scalable battery-grade electrode fabrication process that significantly lowers costs. The company’s AI-based, drop-in technology is designed for production and seamlessly integrated into any existing assembly line. This allows battery makers to reduce production costs while increasing manufacturing capacity.
