Altech Batteries Ltd (ASX:ATC, OTC:ALTHF) has welcomed an independent technology comparison study that assessed its CERENERGY® sodium chloride solid state (SCSS) battery against established alternatives including lithium-ion, sodium-sulphur and vanadium flow batteries.
Confirms promise of SCSS
Commissioned as part of Altech’s funding strategy and due diligence planning, the study was undertaken by global energy storage specialist DNV, which is recognised as one of the sector’s leading technical advisors.
DNV’s comparison confirms promise of Altech’s sodium chloride solid state solution.
While full technical specifications remain undisclosed, the assessment positions CERENERGY® as a compelling alternative in applications where safety, longevity and operational resilience are prioritised.
The confidential full report was prepared specifically for Altech Batteries GmbH, the company’s European subsidiary, while a qualitative overview of the cell-level comparison has been made publicly available.
Emerging potential
The summary reveals that CERENERGY® has considerable potential as an emerging battery technology, with DNV noting that “further improvements in terms of the achievable energy density, performance, and cost efficiency can be expected in the coming years”.
The report outlines the comparative advantages and limitations of CERENERGY® against other dominant technologies in the market.
The study forms a cornerstone of Altech’s broader strategy to validate and commercialise CERENERGY®, particularly within European markets where sustainable and scalable battery solutions are increasingly in demand.
