On-Shoring Synthetic Graphite For US Battery Production - The Battery Show 2023

- Anovion is a relatively new company that makes synthetic graphite for battery production in the US. The company was started before the Infrastructure Act or Inflation Reduction Act, but it’s timing couldn’t be better. Chip Dunn, the Chairman and co-founder of the company, talks about how they’re ramping up production so North American battery manufacturers can source their graphite locally without going overseas.

Fascinating
Oh hell yes. Build it here.
Good Salesman!
Novonix are making more Synthetic graphite, and were the first. Good on Anovion for trying to catch-up, and good luck to them securing a first offtake.
Not that it has done them any good
Austin TX???
This is one of the biggest boons of turquoise H2 production. H2 and solid C are pretty much the only byproducts. Companies like Graphene Manufacturing Group are making low cost graphene anode batteries with this method.
Making graphite is an incredibly energy-intensive process, and I assume that this company is doing it using renewable energy, which is how it is cutting its carbon footprint. However, there isn't much renewable energy in Georgia and Florida, where the company is expanding. It sounds like the company has also figured out a more efficient way to make it. I assume that this is their secret sauce, which is why Chip Dunn avoided answering the question about what his company is doing differently from the Chinese.
The question I have is whether graphite can be made affordably without petroleum coke, because eventually the world is going to stop producing that waste product.
Oil waste product use ... nice. Make that hay while the sun shines.
He talks about Lithium-Ion batteries, but that’s not the only thing out there. What about LFP and NMC? Is this applicable? Also, there’s Sodium batteries on the horizon?
"A less carbon-intensive product than the Chinese..." while talking about a product that is made from oil refinery waste and the end product is pure carbon. Gotta smile at that.
Did you hear him? Georgia and Florida for expansion. Non union. Smart move.
Georgia has a LOT of EV related and battery related companies and start ups building plants in their state (despite some push back by residents). Really the Michigan OEM “lake” is draining slowly into Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, and a bit in Ohio. By 2030 Detroit might be just a small pond.
