Research abstract

Cerebral Energy, LLC presents the Aluminum-Graphene Innovation Lightweight Energy (AGILE) secondary battery for safer, lighter, recyclable energy storage that exceeds current state-of-the-art lithium-ion systems in terms of volumetric energy density, safety profile, and domestic supply chains. We are developing AGILE batteries to ultimately support flight and space operations.ĀOur objective is to commercialize secondary battery cells with up to 100%-200% more energy density than lithium-based systems, utilizing patented advanced anode and cathode designs with high areal capacity through non-planar topologies and morphologies. Our approach involves leveraging low-cost, domestically abundant materials (aluminum and graphene) and simple manufacturing processes to provide a secure and scalable supply chain.Ā We are leveraging patented technology invented by researchers at Archer Research Group from Cornell University and will have the inventor as the PI for this project. Our AGILE technology has been lab verified and the results and methodologies were published in peer reviewed industry journals.Ā Ā
