Amprius Technologies, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets lithium-ion batteries built around a proprietary silicon anode platform. Its cells are designed for mobility applications that need very high energy density, high power density, and fast charging, with current demand centered on aviation and unmanned systems. The company has been commercially producing batteries since 2018 and says its silicon anodes can be used as a drop-in replacement for graphite anodes in conventional lithium-ion cells. Amprius sells both finished battery products and custom design/prototype services, and it also receives government grants from time to time. Its business model combines in-house pilot-line manufacturing in Fremont, California with outsourced contract manufacturing to scale output as customer demand grows.
