Echion, Johnson Matthey, Britishvolt and UCL to produce demonstrator cells in CASCADE, a Faraday Battery Challenge-funded project
Echion Technologies, Cambridge, UK (“Echion”), Johnson Matthey (“JM”), Britishvolt (“BV”) and University College London (“UCL”) are grant recipients in the latest round (Round 4) of the Faraday Battery Challenge.
Project CASCADE (Cathode and Anode Supply Chain for Advanced DEmonstrator) brings together these four organisations to develop a next-generation, ultra-high power and fast-charging battery materials system for automotive applications using the cathode and anode technology of JM and Echion, respectively. This follows the successful CORNEA Innovate UK project between Echion and JM, which established the commercial potential and roadmap for this technology system.
