(89c) Our Journey in Commercialising Scalable, Economical and Sustainable Porous-Silicon for Li-Ion Battery Anodes

We have discovered a scalable, ultra-low temperature and safer method for producing high-value and stable porous silicon for battery anodes. It overcomes many issues of existing methods such as high production costs, problematic scale-up, unsafe manufacturing process and low-performance products. Currently, we are undertaking steps towards commercialising this technology and, as such, performing (i) process development, (ii) product testing, and (iii) market discovery. In this presentation, we will share our efforts in the commercialisation journey. Special emphasis will be on market discovery side, starting from understanding the commercial opportunity, exploring commercialisation options and developing mechanisms to spin-out.
