Amprius Technologies and Packet Digital are scaling domestic drone battery production to reduce Pentagon reliance on Chinese suppliers for UAS programs.

The company’s silicon anode cells deliver twice the flight time of standard lithium-ion. The race to build a compliant domestic supply chain is underway.

Electric flight is harder on a battery than driving. Air taxi cells fall short of profitability today, and better chemistries remain years away

General Motors is betting on silicon anodes as the next leap in EV battery technology.

These industry leaders are engineering the next generation of global power, focusing on breakthroughs in everything from grid-scale infrastructure to electric vehicle development.

Amprius Technologies has announced a strategic collaboration with Matternet to improve the range, payload capacity, and economics of autonomous aerial delivery.

CEO Tom Stepien joins the show! Ann and Tom break down Amprius’ evolution, its path to going public, and where he sees the biggest growth opportunities across its target markets.

Tom Stepien, Amprius Technologies CEO, joins ‘The Exchange’ to discuss the Pentagon’s budget requests for drones, demand for Amprius’ products and more.

New regulations aim to bring drone component manufacturing onshore, creating short-term supply chain challenges but setting the stage for a surge in U.S. production aiming to translate into higher quality, lower prices and more opportunity.

US-based silicon battery anode developer Amprius Technologies has formed a manufacturing partnership with lithium-ion battery developer Nanotech Energy to expand its production footprint from Asia into the US market.

Amprius Technologies has secured a US$21m purchase order for its silicon anode SiCore cells from a Chinese light electric vehicle maker.

Washington’s restrictions on drone and eVTOL batteries spur diversification

Tom breaks the company down in plain English: “lighter, longer, stronger.” Same mass, more energy — meaning drones can fly longer and electric motorcycles can go farther, just by swapping the battery.

Amprius Technologies, Inc. announced it completed a high-volume shipment of SiMaxx™ cells to the Korean Aerospace Research Institute(KARI), known as the aeronautics and space agency of South Korea, further strengthening Amprius’ position as the premier global battery solution for HAPS applications.

Amprius, the lithium-ion battery maker, has won a $1.9 million contract from the US Army for its 500Wh/kg SiMaxx™ silicon anode cell.

The impact category of Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Awards honors designs, no matter how big or small, that have a major impact. This year’s winner, Cionic’s Neural Sleeve, is a bionic tight embedded with sensors and electrodes that stimulate muscles and improve mobility.

The US Department of Defense has been achingly slow to add electric vehicles to its massive fleet. However, signs of activity have been stirring among automotive and battery stakeholders with an interest in defense contracts. The latest example is the US silicon battery firm Amprius Technologies, which has nailed down a slot in the xTechPrime Competition hosted by the US Army.

Amprius is working on ensuring that its wearable battery fits into military operations. The battery will be part of a new Amprius battery vest, which will use batteries with silicone anodes to give soldiers twice the energy storage as the current generation.

US-based battery manufacturer Amprius Technologies has expanded its silicon anode battery line for electric mobility. The new SiCore product platform produces high-energy-density silicon anode batteries that outperform graphite cells using a proprietary silicon anode material technology.
