EnergyLink3 and C4V develop cobalt-free lithium battery for use on agricultural solar projects

• Energylink3 has developed a less toxic lithium battery storage space system for use in farming and also eco sensitive areas to store power from farm-based as well as rural solar arrays. EnergyLink3 batteries will be made in New York at a previous IBM university by C4V as well as iM3, which has been sustained by a $13.25 million financial investment by Governor Cuomo's administration, making it the globe's seventh Gigafactory.

Energylink3 has actually partnered with C4V, the very first lithium battery producer to generate greater than 80% of its battery components in the United States, to sustain the development of battery and also energy administration systems for the U.S. Department of Defense, in 2020. EnergyLink3 has adapted its experience as well as knowledge of the Defense market to supply less toxic, extra fireproof, cobalt and nickel cost-free batteries to country energy manufacturers, farmers that have actually taken on solar power varieties and also mobile services. Like the army, farmers are concerned with the chemical make-up and also fire dangers positioned by lithium-ion modern technology as well as EnergyLink3 intends to resolve these concerns with its individually verified chemistry which lowers danger in locations where food manufacturing is paramount.

"Our innovative cobalt-free battery permits us to offer battery storage options that decrease risk to the bordering farmland and also communities," states Sumanth Chepuri, head of state as well as CEO of EnergyLink3.

EnergyLink3 has actually been accelerating its commercialization with the F3 Tech Accelerator Program, which it was admitted to in September. The program has aided offer concentrate on EnergyLink3's targeted clients, adjustment to emerging markets as well as pilot program requires to verify its current developments. The F3 Tech Accelerator Program supplies access to professionals in production, operations, advertising, investments, financial preparedness and also method.
