C-BATT Announces Fully Domestic Supply Chain for Upcoming ObsidiaTM Battery Anode Material
Company ramps-up domestic production of high-capacity ObsidiaTM.
- Orlando, FL (1888PressRelease) February 05, 2025 - C-BATT, a leader in advanced battery materials, has established a fully domestic supply chain for its upcoming Obsidia™ high-capacity battery anode material.
This development ensures that every component and precursor of Obsidia is sourced and produced within the United States. One key ingredient is domestically mined carbon, setting a benchmark for innovation, reliability, and energy independence in the battery materials sector.
"The United States has a growing demand for batteries, along with an increasing need for these batteries to come from a domestic supply chain,” said Bill Easter, CEO of C-BATT. “Ensuring they are American-made and domestically controlled is a key pillar of our work.”
Obsidia is domestically sourced and produced, has the promise of being one of the most economically viable graphite-replacing anode materials, and stores much more lithium per gram than graphite.
C-BATT’s fully domestic production model ensures that every stage of the Obsidia lifecycle—from raw material sourcing to manufacturing and final assembly—takes place in the United States.
“We are proud of the progress we are making as we move toward commercialization. It is important for our economy to have supply chains that we can control, and at C-BATT we are doing our part,” Easter adds.
In addition to its performance advantages, Obsidia is designed to be cost-competitive. C-BATT’s streamlined production process enables the company to position Obsidia within a market-ready price point that meets the needs of both commercial and consumer markets, making it significantly lower cost than other silicon-based anode materials.
