Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) – Altech Batteries Ltd (ASX:ATC,OTC:ALTHF) (FRA:A3Y) (OTCMKTS:ALTHF) announced that in order to maximise support for its Silumina AnodesTM pilot plant in Saxony, Germany, the R&D laboratory will be transferred from Perth to Germany and repositioned. This is anticipated to provide operational, R&D and cost benefits to the Company. <\/p>\n

Highlights <\/p>\n

– The Silumina AnodesTM pilot plant is constructed and operated at Altech’s premises in Saxony, Germany <\/p>\n

– Strategic decision to transfer the R&D laboratory from Perth to Germany <\/p>\n

– Location of laboratory and pilot plant in close proximity anticipated to benefit R&D testwork, the operation of pilot plant as well as provide cost benefits <\/p>\n

– Appointment of new German based Chief Technology Officer (previous employee of Fraunhofer Institute) <\/p>\n

The Silumina AnodesTM battery materials project involves game changing technology incorporating highcapacity silicon into lithium-ion batteries. Through in house R&D, the Company has cracked the ‘silicon code’ and successfully achieved a 30% higher energy battery with improved cyclability or battery life. Higher density batteries result in smaller, lighter batteries and substantially less greenhouse gases, and is the future for the EV market. <\/p>\n

Altech has signed non-disclosure agreements with world leading automobile companies in Germany and the USA to supply commercial samples of the Silumina AnodesTM material for the prospective customers for in-house testing. <\/p>\n

In conjunction with the repositioning of the R&D laboratory, Altech is pleased to announce that it has appointed German based Dr Luise Bloi as its new Chief Technology Officer. Dr Bloi has a Master of Science (M. Sc.) in Chemistry and has completed her PhD studies in Chemistry on ‘Carbon-based Anodes for Lithium All Solid-State Battery Concepts’. Dr Bloi has collected broad experience in the battery field working with Skeleton Technologies, ACC Automotive Cells Company and as a previous employee of the Fraunhofer Institute, Altech’s joint venture partner in the CERENERGY(R) Sodium-Chloride Solid-State (SCSS) battery project. <\/p>\n

About Altech Batteries Ltd:<\/b><\/p>\n

Altech Batteries Limited (ASX:ATC,OTC:ALTHF) (FRA:A3Y) is a specialty battery technology company that has a joint venture agreement with world leading German battery institute Fraunhofer IKTS (‘Fraunhofer’) to commercialise the revolutionary CERENERGY(R) Sodium Alumina Solid State (SAS) Battery. CERENERGY(R) batteries are the game-changing alternative to lithium-ion batteries. CERENERGY(R) batteries are fire and explosion-proof; have a life span of more than 15 years and operate in extreme cold and desert climates. The battery technology uses table salt and is lithium-free; cobalt-free; graphite-free; and copper-free, eliminating exposure to critical metal price rises and supply chain concerns. <\/p>\n

The joint venture is commercialising its CERENERGY(R) battery, with plans to construct a 100MWh production facility on Altech’s land in Saxony, Germany. The facility intends to produce CERENERGY(R) battery modules to provide grid storage solutions to the market.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
