HIGH PERFORMANCE
Maximum power. Minimum size. No compromise on safety.
When the application demands the highest possible power density in the smallest possible package — and failure is not an option — XNO® performs where other chemistries cannot.
THE CHALLENGE
The challenge: extreme duty cycles expose the limits of conventional chemistry.
High-performance hybrid powertrains impose duty cycles that most battery chemistries cannot survive. The requirement is unambiguous: absorb and release the maximum possible energy in the shortest possible time, continuously, without degradation, in the smallest and lightest possible package — and do it safely.
NMC offers high power density but limited cycle life and thermal runaway risk. LFP is too slow and too large. Silicon deteriorates rapidly at high rates. None solve the full problem simultaneously.
WHY XNO®
Where XNO® delivers
1.
High-performance hybrid powertrains
XNO® delivers the highest power density of any commercially available safe Li-ion chemistry. A hybrid energy store built with XNO® can deliver hundreds of kilowatts from a remarkably small and light package — enabling faster energy recovery during braking and more powerful delivery during acceleration, without degradation over the vehicle's operating life.
2.
Motorsport applications
In motorsport, XNO® enables a hybrid energy store smaller and lighter than any alternative at equivalent power output, with a cycle life that survives the repetitive extreme duty of competitive racing. Safety is uncompromised: EUCAR Level 3, no thermal runaway under abuse, no lithium plating at any state of charge.

Next-generation materials roadmap
Echion maintains an active materials development programme targeting progressively higher power densities beyond the current commercial XNO® formulation — for applications at the absolute extreme of power density requirements.
