About

Eight years’ research carried at the Laboratory of Electrochemistry of Energy Materials at the University of Bologna’s Department of Chemistry (Giacomo Ciamician), which is a world-renowned research center on materials and devices for energy, underpins the development of the longest-lasting and lightest redox flow battery ever reported in scientific literature. This is called NESSOX (NEw Semi-Solid flow lithium OXygen battery).

NESSOX presents the following advantages compared to other battery chemistry already on the market or under development: higher-energy density, lower and faster recharge, safety and environmental sustainability due to the absence of critical elements and heavy metals, and high thermal stability of the electrolyte. NESSOX technology combines in one system the lightness of the lithium/air batteries and the flexibility and modularity of the redox flow batteries, becoming the future reference battery technology for many vertical markets. For example, Nessox technology will ensure that EVs driving range could reach more than 600 km under normal use and be recharged very fast by filling-up with “charged” liquid.
