Lithium Metal Batteries With Increased Energy, Power, and Safety For Electric Aviation

Cuberg is developing a next-generation battery technology to address growing demand in the emerging eVTOL/UAM market. Designed with an energy-dense lithium metal anode and a proprietary non-flammable electrolyte, Cuberg’s batteries deliver a step-change improvement in energy density and safety compared to the best lithium-ion batteries in the world today. As such, our batteries enable unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with longer flight time and much improved reliability. In addition, our technology is a drop-in solution that can be manufactured and scaled using existing lithium-ion production equipment. Cuberg has demonstrated a unique ability to scale up rapidly to meet customer demand with a capital-efficient contract manufacturing model, requiring 10x less capital than other emerging technologies to reach pilot production scale. Through our fully scalable manufacturing pipeline, Cuberg already produces high quality, commercial format 5 Ah pouch cells, and began commercial sales in 2019. Overall, Cuberg’s combination of high performance, safety, and scalability presents a value proposition and commercial appeal that is unmatched in the industry.
