Introduction

We believe our solid-state hybrid battery is safer and has more power. It is designed to allow our customers to make more powerful devices, e.g. EVs have higher driving range; smartphones have longer battery life; electronics use larger screens.

We plan to achieve pilot-scale production. We also aim to provide cheaper batteries by optimizing the manufacturing lines and lowering the cost.

problem

Battery technology impacts our daily lives as it powers our phone, laptop, and electric vehicle. In turn, the battery also creates new anxieties such as: battery fire, lower power, long charging time, battery degradation, high temperature warning, and low temperature shut-off. Some other problems include:

About 2825 electric cars catch on fire each year. GM has recalled 142,000 cars and Hyundai 82,000, both due to the risk that the batteries can, in unusual circumstances, burst into flames (Carsmetric, Financial Times).

Safety

  • Battery fire and explosion.
  • Battery swelling or leakage.
  • Battery recall.

“Low Battery Anxiety” is the feeling of overwhelming fear experienced as our smartphone battery dies. 90% of us panic about losing power on our phones. 41% of people fear missed calls/texts when their phone is dead. 32% of us “drop everything” to head home and charge phones (LG).

Energy and Power

  • Short battery life.
  • Long charging time.
  • Short driving range.
  • Inconsistent battery performance.

Currently, car batteries lose about 60 percent of their power at 0 degrees, and they lose about 35 percent of their power at 32 degrees (American Automobile Association).

Operating Temperature

  • Not operating in cold winter.
  • Battery overheating.
  • Battery running fast.

Solution

We plan to design solid-state hybrid batteries that are safe, have high energy density (>300 Wh/kg), and have stable cycling at a wide temperature range. We synergistically utilize the advantages of liquid electrolyte and solid electrolyte and outperform current liquid-electrolyte batteries and traditional solid-state electrolytes.

Advantages of Solid-State Batteries

  • Safe
  • High energy density
  • Wide working temperature
  • Low cost
  • Easy manufacturing

business model

We plan to sell to Auto OEMs around the world. Additionally, we maintain an active focus on research and development partnering with academia and government labs. The variety of applications include but are not limited to: electrical vehicles, consumer electronics, medical devices, sustainable grid, etc.

Our focus on both technology and cost reduction enabled an efficient process, as seen in our optimized manufacturing process and innovative technology. With efforts on innovation and cost reduction, we believe our products will have more applications.

Market

The global battery market was $48.4B in 2022 (Volta Foundation, 2023). The market of solid-state batteries is attractive and growing very fast. The global solid-state battery industry’s size is expected to grow from $617.5 million in 2021 to $5.31 billion by 2028 (Grand View Research, 2021).

success to date

Our solid-state batteries are based on our proprietary composite solid electrolytes and recent advances on interconnected interfaces. You can find roots in our previous work, e.g.:

    Two-thirds of vehicles would be electric by 2032

    The US Environmental Protection Agency is set to announce sweeping new EPA rules on Wednesday intended to bring EV market share to ~60% in the US by 2030 and 67% by 2032. The rules are a big step forward for electrification, and represent an improvement from President Biden’s previous commitment of 50% electric by 2030. While the new rules have not yet been finalized (or even formally announced), the expectation based on sources within the EPA is that it will set emissions levels low enough that two-thirds of vehicles would need to be electric by 2032.

    Do you know that low power anxiety is real?

    Low battery anxiety, also known as battery anxiety or nomophobia (NO MObile PHone phoBIA), refers to the fear and panic people suffer when witnessing the smartphone power is lower than 20%. According to LG, 90% of us panic about losing power on our phones. 41% fear missed calls/texts when their phone is dead. 32% of us will ‘drop everything’ to head home and charge phones. 33% have delayed a date or meeting because of a low battery. Some other symptoms also include: owning three or more smartphone charging cables, arguing with a significant other or romantic interest because of unanswered calls or texts, and ordering something at a bar or restaurant just to use their power outlet, etc.

    Solib Solutions innovates on powerful solid state batteries that can provide 60% more energy to help you alleviate this power anxiety and build confidence in daily work and life activities. Please learn more at https://solibsolutions.com/.

    Solid-state batteries replaced the liquid electrolyte with a solid one, often allowing the battery to be safer and denser than a traditional one. However, the issues remains as, the slower charge rate, the lower high discharge rate capacity.

    We are developing technology to solve these issues with solid-state hybrid battery technology for the fully electric future. Unlike conventional batteries with liquid electrolytes, solid-state hybrid batteries keep the solid form during the entire battery life and avoid fire caused by auto collision, fast charging, or short circuit. We achieve high battery safety while realizing high energy, high power, low cost, and easy manufacturing. The high performance, excellent safety, easy manufacturing and low cost of our batteries are based on our innovative solid-state hybrid technology that takes combined advantages of liquid electrolytes, inorganics, and solid polymers.
