Supply of Batteries to Martac

Each lithium-ion battery delivered to Martac is 20KW in size which will be used for demonstration and testing purposes in commercial marine vessels so that they can be made more compatible under extreme conditions. These high powered and energy density batteries do not use cobalt focus on the use of higher voltage composite materials which are used in combination of higher energy anode and unique 3D electrode designs.
