Li-S Energy advances Phase 3 production, achieves safety milestones

Li-S Energy Ltd (ASX:LIS) CEO Dr Lee Finniear sits down with Proactive’s Jonathan Jackson to discuss the company’s achievements and the importance of lithium sulphur batteries in the race to carbon zero. Finniear discusses the advancements the company is making with the technology and why lithium sulphur is better than lithium ion?
During the last quarter, Li-S Energy advanced the commissioning of its Phase 3, 2MWh cell production facility and successfully produced the first 20-layer lithium sulphur sample cells. The commissioning process, although complex, is progressing without insurmountable challenges. The company is now testing these sample cells for quality, construction, performance, consistency and safety to optimise each manufacturing step. This process is crucial for refining the cell design and manufacturing precision before mass production. The final cell design will be self-certified to UN38.3 standards for safe international transportation.
Li-S Energy conducted nail penetration tests on 28 2.5Ah multi-layer lithium sulphur cells, built on the Phase 2 micro-production line. These cells passed the civilian UL2271 & UL2580 standards and the United States Military Performance Specifications MIL-PRF-32383/4X, without fire, explosion, leakage or overheating.
The company also filed two new provisional patents and hosted Bob Galyen, former CTO of CATL, at their Geelong facility. Additionally, meetings with Federal and State government officials emphasised the importance of sovereign battery manufacturing capability. Visits to partners like Magnix Aero and ongoing negotiations with prospective partners were also noted.
