Ecellix

Ecellix is a US-based company that has a proprietary developed swell-tolerant micro-porous silicon carbon anode material known as “eCells,” which replaces graphite in next-gen lithium-ion batteries. This provides a 30%–50% increase in Li-ion battery energy capacity as well as a reduction in weight and volume, which results in the production of batteries with higher retention capacity and energy density, coupled with lower manufacturing costs.

In November 2021, Ecellix signed an MoU with Romeo Power to cooperate on the development, validation, and launch of next-gen battery technology.

Ecellix’s latest funding round was in January 2021, when the company raised an undisclosed amount from Puget Sound Venture Club. The company had raised USD 1 million in funding, as of June 2023.
