Addionics has developed a 3D current collector architecture for lithium-ion batteries that replaces conventional flat copper and aluminum foils with a porous, three-dimensional metal structure. The design is produced using metal additive manufacturing and is intended as a drop-in replacement for existing electrode manufacturing lines, meaning battery cell producers can adopt the technology without reformulating their cathode or anode chemistries.
The company reports that its 3D electrodes improve battery performance by 20 to 30 percent while reducing copper and aluminum usage by up to 60 percent. These gains come from increased surface area and better current distribution within the electrode, which can enable faster charging, higher energy density, and longer cycle life. Addionics targets electric vehicle manufacturers and battery cell producers as its primary customers.
Addionics has raised $79 million in total funding, including a $39 million Series B in 2024 led by GM Ventures, with participation from Scania and other investors. It also received a $50 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy under the IRA and plans to invest $400 million in U.S. production, with a mass-scale factory targeted for 2027. The company holds 16 global patents, the majority active, covering its 3D current collector manufacturing process and electrode design.
The company competes with next-generation battery developers such as StoreDot, Sila, and Solid Power, but differentiates by focusing on electrode architecture rather than novel chemistries. This approach may reduce integration risk for existing battery manufacturers, though scaling production of 3D metal structures at competitive cost remains an open challenge.
