Addionics
Addionics is a Smart Metals manufacturer developing AI-designed porous 3D Current Collectors that help battery manufacturers produce better-performing batteries at lower cost. By redesigning the current collector from a flat metal foil into a porous 3D structure, Addionics enhances battery performance with higher capacity, faster charging, improved safety, and longer lifetime. Designed to integrate into existing manufacturing lines, the technology enables scalable battery production without major infrastructure changes. As a chemistry-agnostic platform, it is compatible with existing and emerging battery technologies and supports the next era of battery applications, from electric vehicles and autonomous systems to defense, space, energy storage, and consumer electronics.
The problem
The world is moving rapidly toward electrification, from electric vehicles and energy storage to AI infrastructure, robotics, defense, and space. Batteries are the foundation of this transition, but today’s battery technologies still face major limitations in performance, cost, scalability, and manufacturing efficiency. As demand grows, the industry needs a new generation of batteries that can store more energy, last longer, charge faster, improve safety, and be produced at scale at a competitive cost. This challenge is especially urgent for the automotive industry, where OEMs are under pressure to accelerate electrification, meet consumer expectations, and align with global emissions and net-zero targets.
Company's solution
Addionics redesigns traditional flat metal current collectors into Smart 3D Current Collectors, creating a more advanced battery architecture for the next generation of energy storage. This structure improves how energy, ions, and heat move through the cell, enabling higher capacity, faster charging, longer lifetime, enhanced safety, and lower cost. The patented Addionics solution is chemistry-agnostic and compatible with existing and emerging battery technologies. Designed as a drop-in solution, it integrates into existing battery manufacturing lines without major infrastructure changes, helping manufacturers improve battery performance and scale production more efficiently.
