Scale Up of Next Generation Li-ion battery electrode processing technology

Lead: Electrovaya Inc (ON)

Partners: Lantern Machinery Analytics Inc (BC), Eecomobility Inc (ON)

Lithium ion batteries have become critical energy storage devices for the rapidly developing electric vehicle market, however the manufacturing processes used to produce them remain expensive and environmentally problematic. Current commercial electrode manufacturing processes employ a slurry mixing/coating method for which the hazardous solvent N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is extensively used. NMP-free electrode processing has the potential to not only reduce the environmental impact of lithium ion battery manufacturing, but would also enable a breakthrough in cost reductions which could realize significant global benefits. This project will bring a proprietary NMP-free electrode processing technology to a commercial scale through collaboration between Electrovaya, Machinery Analytics, and EECOMOBILITY.

Automated Module Assembly with Advanced Laser Welding and In-Line QC

Lead: Electrovaya Inc (ON) Partner: Eecomobility Inc (ON)

This project aims to develop pilot advanced manufacturing capabilities for high voltage electric truck and bus battery modules in Canada and will be carried out through a collaboration between Electrovaya and EECOMOBILITY. The partners will implement a versatile, semi-automated laser welding manufac- turing pilot line compatible with a range of module architectures. After the success of this project Elec- trovaya will work on scaling up the module assembly manufacturing line and supply made-in-Canada modules for heavy duty e-mobility applications.
