Asia stocks rise: Japan surges on Takaichi bets, China buoyed by positive GDP
LONDON - Gelion plc (AIM:GELN) has strengthened its lithium-sulfur battery intellectual property portfolio with two newly granted patents and one allowed application in the United States, the energy storage company announced Thursday.
The patents protect technologies that enhance cycling performance, extend cell lifespan, simplify manufacturing processes for protective coatings on alkali metal electrodes, and improve thermal and state-of-charge management within battery modules.
These advancements aim to address key challenges in lithium-sulfur battery development, including longer usable life through improved charge-discharge cycles, reduced manufacturing complexity, enhanced safety features, and improved operational efficiency.
With these additions, Gelion’s lithium-sulfur portfolio now encompasses over 200 patents and applications across 40 families, covering components including anodes, cathodes, electrolytes, cell engineering, manufacturing techniques, and battery management systems.
"Gelion’s investment in innovation is aimed at establishing a position of recognition in the global battery marketplace," said John Wood, CEO of Gelion. "Our pace of innovation is strong and in particular we have strong momentum gaining new knowledge about how to deliver enhanced performance from Sulfur technology."
The company is developing sulfur-based battery technologies including lithium-sulfur for electric vehicles and aviation applications, and sodium-sulfur for stationary storage and economy electric vehicles.
Gelion describes its strategy as building a "defensible moat" around its approach to next-generation sulfur technology through comprehensive patent protection across the lithium-sulfur value chain.
This announcement was made through a company press release.
