Altris reaches new milestone with 160 Wh/kg battery cell
The Swedish sodium-ion battery developer Altris presents a sodium-ion battery cell that has been validated for a best-in-class energy density of over 160 Wh/kg. This makes Altris’ battery cell commercially viable for applications such as cost-efficient and sustainable energy storage systems. The achievement marks an important milestone for Altris, which is now working to scale up the giga-manufacturing of its patented cathode material, Altris Prussian White.

Scaling up production of Fennac in 2022
In 2023, Altris’ first industrial production facility, Ferrum, will begin producing the ground-breaking cathode material Fennac in Sandviken, Sweden. Ferrum will annually produce 2000 metric tonnes of Fennac, enabling 1GWh of sustainable sodium-ion batteries to enter the market each year. Until this facility is up and running, however, Altris needs scale-up existing production of Fennac to meet customer demands already in 2022.
