    Episode 33 | Advances in Silicon-based Anodes | Jeff Helm | NanoGraf Corporation

    Lithium-Ion batteries have become the portable power technology of choice, the problem is, energy density improvements are not keeping pace with the ever-increasing demand for performance, and that’s a problem. One technology that has the potential to deliver a step change in performance is the development of silicon-based anodes, due to the far greater energy capacity of silicon compered to graphite. In this episode I’m joined by Jeff Helm of NanoGraf Corporation to discuss the potential benefits and challenges of developing silicon-based anodes.   Speaker Notes: Jeff Helm | VP of Sales and Marketing at NanoGraf Corporation https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-helm-38400511/   NanoGraf Corporation https://www.nanograf.com/     Show Notes: The Battery Technology Podcast is sponsored by Munters - Global leaders in energy-efficient air treatment and climate solutions. https://www.munters.com/en/   Vaisala - Accurate moisture and concentration measurements for battery manufacturing upstream, midstream and downstream operations. www.vaisala.com/battery   The Gigafactory & Battery Manufacturing Expo | Huntsville | AL | June 2025 Held at the Von Braun Center, Huntsville, AL, the Gigafactory and Battery Manufacturing Expo provides the perfect opportunity to explore the next stage of the battery revolution as we move from the laboratory into the battery manufacturing phase.   Held over two days and featuring a world class speaker agenda , thought-provoking seminars, a wide variety of product demonstrations and networking opportunities, the event will showcase the development of next-generation manufacturing equipment, services and facilities that will be needed to create a globally competitive battery manufacturing industry   ken.davies@2030netzeroltd.com https://gigafactoryexpo.com/   Advertising and Sponsorship For companies looking to reach a global audience of battery professionals, the Battery Technology Podcast is the perfect place to promote your products and services in a thought-provoking way.

    Episode 32 | Listening to the Market | A Case study in Battery Product Development | Darren Brittain | Trojan Battery Company

    In this series of podcasts, I often thought of the Battery industry as a whole, but in fact it is populated by individual businesses making individual product development decisions based on the needs of their market. And just how these businesses innovate is interesting. It’s also easy to concentrate on the EV market, but of course, the range of applications for batteries is enormous. In this episode I’m joined by Darren Brittain, Senior Director of Portfolio Strategy with Trojan Battery Company to discuss a very specific market, and how the move to Lithium-ion batteries helped deliver enhanced performance.   Speaker Notes: Darren Brittain, Senior Director of Portfolio Strategy with Trojan Battery Company https://www.linkedin.com/in/darren-brittain-mba-502ba366/   Trojan Battery Company https://www.trojanbattery.com/?utm_source=Battery_Technology_Podcast&utm_medium=Website_Link&utm_campaign=2024_Lithium_Golf&utm_term=&utm_content=&utm_language=English&utm_date=&utm_marketing_program=Lithium&utm_region=EMEA&utm_category=OnePack&utm_call_to_action=&utm_other=   Show Notes: The Battery Technology Podcast is sponsored by Munters - Global leaders in energy-efficient air treatment and climate solutions. https://www.munters.com/en/   Vaisala - Accurate moisture and concentration measurements for battery manufacturing upstream, midstream and downstream operations. www.vaisala.com/battery   The Gigafactory & Battery Manufacturing Expo | Huntsville | AL | June 2025 Held at the Von Braun Center, Huntsville, AL, the Gigafactory and Battery Manufacturing Expo provides the perfect opportunity to explore the next stage of the battery revolution as we move from the laboratory into the battery manufacturing phase.   Held over two days and featuring a world class speaker agenda , thought-provoking seminars, a wide variety of product demonstrations and networking opportunities, the event will showcase the development of Next Generation manufacturing equipment, services and facilities that will be needed to create a globally competitive battery manufacturing industry   ken.davies@2030netzeroltd.com https://gigafactoryexpo.com/   Advertising and Sponsorship For companies looking to reach a global audience of battery professionals, the Battery Technology Podcast is the perfect place to promote your products and services in a thought-provoking way.
