Ilika plc (LON:IKA), an independent global expert in solid-state battery technology, has announced that it has successfully reached its D6 milestone by testing 10Ah cells in its Goliath solid state batteries for electric vehicles. The systematic testing to industry standards demonstrates the increased capacity of its cells as it systematically moves along its development roadmap for customers.
Building and successfully testing these larger 10Ah cells follows on from the announcement last month on 3 October 2024 of compelling safety data from the testing of its Goliath D5 prototypes.
Ilika is now progressing with development towards a D7 design freeze, which it expects to achieve in Q1 2025. The D7 design freeze will form the basis of a release of 10Ah prototype cells to customers, called the P1.5 prototypes, which will be an upgrade on the 2Ah P1 prototypes released in July 2024.
