→ SAFER → FASTER → LONGER
Current lithium-ion batteries have performance limitations, especially for applications where high power, fast charging and long cycle life are key requirements. The technology that works for passenger electric vehicles will not work as well for industrial or commercial applications, where expensive capital assets need to return a low Total Cost of Ownership over their lifetime.
Echion’s XNO® lithium-ion battery anode materials provide a solution that can effectively electrify heavy duty transport and industrial applications. When packaged in a suitably designed battery cell, module and pack system, XNO® offers end users the low total cost of ownership and high operational productivity required.
Electrifying the hard to electricity with a solution targeted to meet the needs and requirements of heavy-duty applications.
Our innovative anode material, XNO®, is being used by cell and pack makers across the world to build optimised systems for high performance operations.

AGVs
Technology Highlights
• XNO®-powered Li-ion batteries charge safely in under 10 minutes
• Improve cycle life by 10x (compared to lead-acid) or 2–3x (compared to Li-ion: LFP/NMC)
• Increase energy density by 50% over LTO
These attributes mean smaller, lighter batteries focused on keeping your AGVs in productive operation and reducing fleet-level costs. XNO® eliminates the compromises that hinder other technologies.
Unlike lead-acid batteries, which demand lengthy 8-hour charging and frequent replacements every 2–4 years, XNO® delivers sub-10-minute charging and a 10x longer cycle, slashing downtime and maintenance costs.
