Ampcera's All-Solid-State Battery Technology Achieves Fast 80% Charge in Less Than 15 Minutes

Ampcera Inc., a pioneer in solid-state electrolyte manufacturing and next-generation solid-state battery development, announces that its all-solid-state battery (ASSB) technology has achieved a fast-charging milestone of 0 to 80% state of charge (SOC) in under 15 minutes at a peak C-rate of 4C. This advancement demonstrates the fast-charging potential of ASSB – a key requirement for the widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs).

Ampcera’s ASSB technology, which comprises IP-protected sulfide solid-state electrolyte materials, is engineered for extreme fast charging. A high-capacity NMC cathode and a silicon-based anode are used to achieve a high energy density goal of 400 Wh/kg. The ASSB is devoid of any liquid or semi-solid electrolyte ensuring the highest levels of battery safety, which is particularly crucial during rapid charging cycles. Lab-scale pouch cells exhibited less than 5% capacity decay after 300 cycles of repeated fast charging (4C peak C-rate) demonstrating the potential for a long cycle life of greater than 1000 cycles in commercial cells once fully developed.

“Ampcera’s high-performance solid-state electrolyte materials have propelled ASSB technology beyond the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s ambitious fast-charging benchmark of achieving an 80% charge in under 15 minutes,” said Sumin Zhu, Co-Founder and CEO of Ampcera Inc. “Our primary objective is to introduce a commercially viable fast-charging ASSB technology that addresses consumer charge anxiety caused by extended wait times at charging stations.”

The mounting concern regarding prolonged wait times at public charging stations, particularly in urban areas with limited at-home charging options, has significantly heightened charge anxiety among current and potential EV owners hindering widespread adoption. Ampcera is committed to tackling this critical challenge by advancing plans to develop and commercialize its fast-charging ASSB technology through strategic partnerships with industry leaders.

Last year, Ampcera was awarded a $2.1 million grant from the U.S. DOE’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) as part of the EVs4ALL program. This grant underscores Ampcera’s commitment to advancing the development and commercialization of all-climate, fast-charging ASSB technology in collaboration with key industry partners, including a major U.S. automaker. It’s noteworthy that achieving an 80% charge in 15 minutes or less is considered an extreme fast-charging goal for lithium batteries, as outlined by both the United States Advanced Battery Consortium (USABC) and the U.S. DOE.

About Ampcera Inc.

Ampcera is a U.S.-based innovator and global leader in the development and commercialization of solid-state electrolyte materials and scalable manufacturing processes for next-generation solid-state batteries. With over 25 U.S. and international patents and patent applications safeguarding our core technologies, we continue to lead the charge toward a sustainable energy future.

New Documentary ‘Awakening the Machine: The AI Revolution’ Set for 2024 ReleaseExploring the Intersection of Technology and Humanity: 'Awakening the Machine: The AI Revolution' Documentary Explores the Present and Future Impacts of Artificial Intelligence, Featuring Insights from Leading Tech Visionaries

"Awakening the Machine: The AI Revolution," a major new documentary focusing on the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence, is currently in production and set for release in 2024. This timely and crucial film began production in early 2023, amidst a global surge in AI development and growing concerns about its potential risks.

Produced by Machina Productions, the documentary aims to provide a comprehensive and nuanced exploration of AI's impact on society.

The film is directed by Chris Hershman, recognized for his cinematic work for top music acts as well as commercial projects within the tech industry.

"A key goal of 'Awakening the Machine' is to offer the public an in-depth understanding of the implications of AI – not only the future risks but also the very real issues it is creating today," said producer Carolyn Rogers. "We are technologists who believe in the potential of AI, but also want to foster a discussion about what it means to develop it responsibly. A central question the film strives to answer is: how much human agency are we willing to give up to machines?"

In collaboration with Room 608, the production company behind Netflix's "A Trip to Infinity," the documentary is set to be one of the definitive AI documentaries of our time. Despite challenges in the entertainment industry, the project has made significant strides, having completed interviews with experts including Dan Hendrycks, Director of the Center for AI Safety and advisor to Elon Musk's company, xAI; Max Tegmark, a renowned MIT professor and prominent AI researcher; Tim Urban, a popular blogger and writer known for his insightful commentary on scientific and sociological topics; and Jaan Tallinn, a billionaire investor, co-founder of Skype, and a leading figure in the tech industry.

The documentary "Awakening the Machine: The AI Revolution" is actively in production, advancing with ongoing expert interviews. In parallel, the project is exploring opportunities with potential investors and distributors to further support and extend the reach of this impactful project.
