Superlattice Power, Inc. is a leader in the development and marketing of next-generation lithium-powered batteries worldwide. The company is working closely with EV Innovations (EVII.OB) to research and develop mass scale production of cathode superlattice nano and sub-micron sized structures for use in rechargeable lithium ion batteries.
Lithium ion batteries are composed of cathode, anode, separator and electrolyte composed of lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) or different salts dissolved in non-aqueous solvent. A lithium ion battery is the primary source of a rechargeable storage system since it has the capability to provide the highest gravimetric and volumetric energy density.
Perhaps the key component in a lithium ion battery is the cathode. The cathode materials that Superlattice produces are based on a superlattice structure. A superlattice structure is a hexagonal structure that can accommodate more lithium and more power than conventional material structures. The elements and special transition metals have been selected precisely to make Superlattice cathode materials safe, environmentally friendly and less expensive.
Superlattice Power’s partner EV Innovations is a company focused on emissions-free automotive propulsion systems using the latest lithium battery technology. EV Innovations has recently received extensive media coverage from their release of two distinctly different plug-in electric vehicles at the 2009 New York International Auto Show.
The Wall Street Journal reported that there is a major challenge for manufacturers to keep costs of electric vehicles down. In fact, the Journal reported that EV Innovations appears to be the most competitive with what is available in the market today. EV Innovations’ competitiveness stems in large part from its lead in lithium battery technology, thanks to Superlattice Power and its new cathode materials.

Superlattice Power, Inc. and Global Giant in Asia Submit Letter of Support to Department of Energy USA for Mass Scale Production, Job Creation, Training and Development of Safe, High Energy Density, Cost Effective, Electric Vehicle Battery Packs May 11, 2009 7:31:00 AM Copyright Business Wire 2009
View Additional ProfilesMOORESVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Superlattice Power, Inc. (OTCBB: SLAT), emerging leader in the development and marketing of next generation lithium-powered batteries worldwide, is honored as the Department of Energy, National Energy and Technology Laboratory receives a letter of strong support by a global battery giant.
This company will not only train U.S. citizens but will produce battery packs at minimum cost using a semi-automatic system that is capable of producing enough battery packs to fulfill the U.S. demand and supply for hybrid and electric cars as proposed by President Obama.
Superlattice Power Inc.'s initiative in developing electric vehicle battery packs according to American Electric Vehicle Standards was assessed by the global battery leaders, and SLAT is committed to meet the demand with a high quality rechargeable power system.
By participating in the funding opportunity with Superlattice Power, the manufacturing giant has observed the potential for both companies to achieve a long-term relationship, bringing together an eco-minded community of partnerships to advance U.S. and global energy efficiency. The funding will allow Superlattice Power, Inc. to accelerate their efforts to move toward lithium power transportation within the U.S. and create jobs and technology that are currently absent and critically needed within the USA.
This collaborative work will introduce a new era where the U.S. will no longer be dependent on foreign resources and will become self-sufficient. This technology transfer will help universities educate students as funding will be allocated for prospective students in US universities to study in the field of alternative energy.
