C4V provides working prototype of semi-solid-state battery, page-10

Hey K,

Production timelines provided direct from C4V website:

http://chargecccv.com/innovation#overview

My basic summary below

Gen1:

- Commercially ready for production in 2019

- Bio-Mineralised Lithium Metal Phosphate Chemistry for cathode

- Anode is graphite and silicon composite blend

- energy density 200Wh/kg and volumetric capacity 500Wh/L

Gen2:

- Implementation for volume manufacturing is expected by 2021

- Same BM-LMP cathode and graphite/silicon anode with further development of these

- focus of introducing a more thermally-stable electrolyte to enhance performance

- energy density 300Wh/kg and volumetric capacity 650Wh/L

Gen3:

- "We confidently project these unique batteries will be ready for volume manufacturing by 2025 along with a stable supply chain"

- semi-solid-state electrolyte replacing majority of liquid electrolyte with solid (website dictates 50% replacement, however recent announcement states greater than 80% acheived)

- "our initial tests from Generation 3 batteries demonstrate energy densities and volumetric capacities of 400Wh/kg and 800 Wh/L" (assumedly with 50/50 electrolyte split - recent announcement with 80% solid state has lesser performance results though expectations to increase with further research and development)
