Solid power battery specs

How many volts can a solid-state battery hold?

The company plans to optimize its solid-state battery cells for capacities ranging from 60 to 100 amp-hours. Here each pouch type "cell" consists of 40 double-sided cathodes and 41 anodes. That works out to 24 to 40 kWh at 400 volts, 48 to 80 kWh at 800 volts.

Is solid power a solid-state battery company?

Solid Power has been chasing the solid-state battery dream for more than 5 years. It has forged relationships with BMW and Ford and said earlier this year it would begin supplying prototypes to manufacturers soon.

How many eV cells can a solid power EV battery produce?

The pilot line will have an output of up to 300 cells per week, or approximately 15,000 cells per year, which seems to be enough to build multiple test battery packs. According to the press release, Solid Power intends to optimize its "Silicon EV Cells" for capacities ranging from 60 to 100 Ah.

Is solid power a sulfide battery?

Solid Power won't divulge the precise chemistry of its electrolyte, except to say that it is a sulfide (other solid-state battery research has involved ceramic and solid-polymer type electrolytes). Solid Power says its battery design can be manufactured using similar processes and equipment currently in use producing today's lithium-ion batteries.

What is solid power?

Solid Power is developing a safer, cheaper and more energy-dense battery (with 50-100% improved energy density compared to today's lithium-ion) by replacing the liquid electrolyte with Solid Power's sulfide-based, solid ion-conducting chemistry while swapping the graphite anode traditionally found in lithium-ion with a lithium metal anode.

Where are solid power batteries made?

LOUISVILLE, Colo., Dec. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Solid Power, an industry-leading developer of all solid-state batteries for electric vehicles, today announced that its Louisville, Colo. facility is producing 20 ampere hour (Ah) multi-layer all solid-state lithium metal batteries on the company's continuous roll-to-roll production line.
