Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd. has made significant progress on its graphene aluminium-ion battery technology, demonstrating energy density improvements and ultra-fast charging capabilities that outperform leading Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO) batteries. The new battery charges fully in about six minutes, offers higher energy density (up to 101 Wh/kg at 1-hour charge), and maintains stable performance over hundreds of cycles. The technology uses abundant materials like aluminium and graphene, avoiding lithium and copper, potentially lowering costs and improving safety. Next steps include further testing for cycle life, temperature effects, and safety, with plans for commercial production in 2027 supported by partners including Rio Tinto and the Battery Innovation Center of Indiana.
