Nyobolt is a UK-based battery technology company that develops lithium-ion batteries and energy storage systems. The company’s solutions are tailored for applications that benefit from rapid charging and long operational life.[1]
History
[edit]Nyobolt was established in 2019 by Professor Clare Grey and Dr. Sai Shivareddy, following research into niobium-based anode materials at the University of Cambridge.[2] The company initially focused on scaling its proprietary anode material and testing its integration into commercial cell manufacturing processes.[3]
Over the following years, Nyobolt expanded its capabilities in battery systems and electronics, secured Series A and B funding rounds, and began pilot testing in high-power applications such as electric vehicles and industrial automation.[4][5][6]
In 2019, Nyobolt established a research and development facility in the United States, and four years later in 2023, the company launched a production facility in the United Kingdom.[7] That same year, the company unveiled an electric vehicle demonstrator capable of six-minute charging to demonstrate its technology.[8][9]
Battery technology model
[edit]Nyobolt develops high-power lithium-ion batteries utilising both niobium-based and graphite-based anodes designed for ultrafast charging, and long operational life.[10] The company’s technology integrates materials science with battery cell engineering, power electronics, and system-level controls.[11] Its batteries are intended for applications in electric vehicles, robotics, consumer electronics, and industrial tools where rapid charging and energy efficiency are key performance factors.[12]
Awards and recognitions
[edit]In 2023, Nyobolt was selected as a winner of Hyundai Motor Europe’s Open Innovation Challenge, organized in collaboration with HYUNDAI CRADLE and Plug and Play Tech Center.[13]
