Ilika Plc (LON:IKA), a pioneer in solid state battery technology, has announced it has reached its 2023 stated intermediate technology development target of lithium-ion energy density parity in its Goliath large format EV battery programme. This achievement validates the technical approach taken by the Company and supports the justification for investment in a full-pilot facility configured to demonstrate that the technology can be licensed for third-party giga-scale implementation.
This is a significant milestone as it means that the Goliath solid state pouch cell is now able to match the representative energy density of incumbent lithium-ion pouch cells, achieving an effective energy density of 250 Wh/kg and a capacity of 0.715 Ah.
