Ampcera is a company that specializes in solid-state electrolytes and batteries. They offer superior performance sulfide and oxide solid-state electrolyte materials that can be manufactured at scale with a significant cost advantage over competition. Their proprietary engineered solid-state electrolyte materials, all ceramic or composite flexible membranes and manufacturing technology under development by Ampcera are only available through MSE Supplies.
Ampcera secured $15 million in a recent funding round to scale up its solid-state electrolyte manufacturing capacity which will reduce material cost making next-generation battery technologies cost-competitive with conventional lithium batteries. Ampcera was selected to receive $2.1 million in funding to develop more efficient solid-state batteries for EVs supporting U.S. domestic development of advanced batteries to make EVs more adaptive and accessible.
