Amprius Technologies, Inc. (“Amprius”) (NYSE: AMPX), a leader in next-generation lithium-ion batteries with its Silicon Anode Platform, today announced a new SiCore™ cell as part of its expanding SiCore product platform. Designed to revolutionize high-performance electric mobility, the SiCore platform utilizes a proprietary silicon anode material system to deliver the best-known commercially available energy and power performance in one cell.

The new SiCore cell offers unparalleled power-to-energy capabilities for high-demand applications. With an impressive energy density of 370 Wh/kg, the SiCore cell extends runtimes while still delivering exceptional high-power performance exceeding 3000 W/kg. The cell’s advanced design supports high discharge rates of up to 10C without cooling and 15C with active cooling, ensuring quick power delivery without compromising runtime. This cutting-edge solution is expected to set new standards for applications operating in the most demanding conditions. The new SiCore cell is ideal for aviation, including drones, and high-performance electric vehicle applications that require both endurance and rapid energy delivery.

Amprius customers, such as Teledyne FLIR, a leading provider of unmanned solutions to military and public safety customers, are turning to SiCore for the new possibilities it can enable.

“Amprius’ new SiCore cell is positioned to deliver a transformative boost in power and energy for our unmanned aerial systems, extending mission durations while maintaining critical performance under demanding conditions,” said Tung Ng, Vice President, Unmanned Systems North America at Teledyne FLIR. “We are eager to evaluate how this breakthrough technology can meet the rigorous needs of our defense, security, and industrial customers, enabling longer runtimes and increasing operational flexibility.”

“This SiCore cell is a significant technical breakthrough for the industry, achieving a level of power-to-energy ratio that we believe has not been seen at such high-energy density,” said Dr. Ionel Stefan, CTO of Amprius Technologies. “By optimizing the silicon anode composition without compromising the other performance metrics of the cell, we have redefined the trade-off between power and energy. This cell is not just about performance but about creating new power possibilities for high-demand applications.”

“Amprius SiCore Platform has achieved a new performance level. With its unparalleled power-to-energy performance and adaptability across industries such as advanced air mobility, drones, electric vehicles, and light electric vehicles, the new SiCore cell offers our customers more design options and capabilities,” said Dr. Kang Sun, CEO of Amprius Technologies. “It is expected to enable our customers to achieve superior range, speed, and reliability. This advanced power delivery is especially critical for applications like eVTOL aircraft, where high power is essential for takeoff and landing, and high energy ensures extended flight times and longer ranges. Backed by our strong manufacturing partnerships and capabilities, we believe this innovation positions Amprius to meet growing market demand while driving the widespread adoption of silicon anode technology in rapidly expanding industries.”

In the fourth quarter of 2024, pre-production 10Ah samples were delivered to six of Amprius’ customers, enabling real-world testing in challenging environments. This early access ensures the SiCore cell meets industry standards ahead of its planned commercialization in the first quarter of 2025.
