HPQ’s Silicon-Anode Batteries Outperform Samsung, Panasonic & LG After 1,000 Cycles
GEN3 KEY PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTSExtended Lifespan – Retains 80% capacity after 1,000 cyclesHigher Energy Output – Delivers 30% more cumulative energy than graphiteA GAME-CHANGER IN LITHIUM-ION BATTERY INNOVATIONNovacium, a France-based affiliate of HPQ Silicon Inc. ($HPQ / $HPQFF), has achieved a breakthrough in battery performance. Its GEN3 18650 silicon-anode batteries have surpassed 1,000 charge cycles while maintaining exceptional energy capacity, outperforming the industry’s leading lithium-ion alternatives.Panasonic NCR18650GA LG MJ1 Samsung 30Q “Reaching 1,000 cycles with such strong results isn’t just validation—it’s a breakthrough proving that silicon can compete at scale. We’re showing the industry that high-energy, long-life silicon anodes are ready now.” – Dr. Jed Kraiem, COO, NovaciumMULTIPLE NDA’S SIGNED WITH BATTERY MANUFACTURERS AND END-USERSHPQ has already signed NDAs with multiple battery manufacturers and end-users, demonstrating strong industry interest. Additionally, the French military is currently testing HPQ’s silicon-anode batteries for high-performance applications, further validating the technology’s efficiency and scalability.The global graphite market is projected to grow from 5.7 million tonnes in 2025 to 11.1 million tonnes by 2030, creating an addressable market valued between $27.5 billion and $55.0 billion. HPQ’s silicon material can replace up to 10 percent of graphite anodes, unlocking a multi-billion-dollar opportunity while providing a cost-effective, high-performance alternative.HPQ is now advancing toward industrial-scale production with plans for a dedicated pilot plant, possibly through joint ventures, to meet growing demand. As a Canadian-European battery innovator, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on European investment in batteries and defense, as well as government-backed funding such as Horizon Financing.LOOKING AHEADHPQ is also exploring the potential to spin off different divisions, including battery materials, fumed silica, and hydrogen technology, within the next 12 to 24 months to maximize shareholder value.For investors seeking exposure to next-generation battery technology, HPQ is emerging as a leader in the transition to more efficient, longer-lasting lithium-ion batteries.A MARKET SET FOR EXPLOSIVE GROWTH
