The French solid-state cell technology goes back to 2011. Some readers may remember Bolloré relying exclusively on batteries based on a lithium metal polymer (LMP) developed in-house, which claimed market maturity in 2012. The batteries are manufactured at the headquarters in France and Canada.
Bolloré started its studies at the end of the 1990s and developed a first pilot line in 2001 in Quimper. Hydro Quebec had explored the technology since 1995. Subsidiaries of both companies merged in 2007 and based on the two rights of patents, we started establishing 2012 the first lines of production of our LMP® batteries.
In the global race for innovation, the “solid-state” battery is recognized as one of the most promising future paths. The main characteristic of these batteries is its solid electrolyte, as opposed to conventional lithium-ion batteries where the electrolyte is liquid.
The point why everybody is looking for solid-state status, that’s because you will be able to get rid of the thermal runaway. Solid-state is safer than lithium-ion battery technology. We also get the benefits of the lithium metal anode, which has specific energy ten times higher than the graphite one used in lithium-ion batteries.
According to the agreement, the French may now utilise battery materials from Foxconn subsidiary SolidEdge Solution. In its statement, Foxconn, or Hon Hai, also mentions a solid-state battery “ecosystem” and called Blue Solutions’ GEN4 technology “exclusive”. The French solid-state cell technology goes back to 2011.
