About Altech Batteries
Altech Batteries (ATC) (formerly Altech Chemicals) is a Perth-based battery technology development company. ATC’s two key projects include the CERENERGY® project and the Silumina Anodes project.
CERENERGY® is a serious alternative tolithium-ion batteries for several reasons, including that they are fire and explosion proof, have a far longer-life span and can operate in extreme climates. In September 2022, Fraunhofer and Altech announced a JV to commercialise the CERENERGY® battery - 75% owned by Altech and associated entity Altech Advanced Materials AG, with Fraunhofer owning 25%. The JV is commercialising a 100 MWh battery plant in Germany on Altech’s land.
Silumina Anodes is a composite silicon-graphite anode material, that uses patented high-purity alumina coating technology. The resultant product has been tested and shown to increase capacity of the conventional EV lithiumion battery by ~30%.The product will be provided to potential end users for their internal test work. Concurrently, Altech is preparing a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for a 100% green energy plant in the Schwarze Pumpe district of Germany that will be able to produce 10,000tpa of Silumina AnodesTM. A PFS has
already been completed, reflecting an NPV of US$507M.
