Graphite Solutions for Energy Storage

Energy storage is a key topic in terms of sustainable mobility and energy supply.

SGL Carbon offers various solutions for the development of energy storage based on specialty graphite. With synthetic graphite as anode material, we already make an important contribution to the higher performance of lithium-ion batteries, while our battery felts and bipolar plates in stationary energy storage devices (so-called redox flow batteries) enable efficient charging and discharging. In addition, our specialty graphite solutions help improve the fast charging capability of lead-acid batteries.
