LeydenJar anodes are integrated into lithium-ion batteries, enabling dramatically increased capacity and fast-charging capabilities. Being 70% higher in energy density than conventional anodes and up to 10x thinner, LeydenJar anodes pave the way for new products and innovations in the automotive and consumer electronics industry. Phones, laptops and electric vehicles become lighter in weight, more compact and longer lasting on a single charge. What’s more, climate change impact of production is reduced by up to 85% compared to conventional graphite anodes.

Accelerating Energy Transition

The commissioning of PlantOne will unlock a wealth of opportunities to foster a greener, more innovative future for the Netherlands and Europe. The climate change impact of anode production is minimized, and the electrification of our society is accelerated through record-high energy density.
