Idaho National Laboratory recently validated Zenlab's 12 Ah pouch cells with 315 Wh/kg to have a cycle life of 1,000 cycles at a C/3 charge rate and 896 cycles at 4C. Zenlabs uses 50% to 80% silicon loading in its silicon‑graphite composite anode, much higher than commercially available cells, which... To read more, click here.
