Stellantis lithium-sulfur EV batteries: cheaper, lighter, more range​


December 06, 2024


Zeta Energy Corp's bold, yellow-packaged lithium-sulfur batteries to power the future

In a potentially game-changing move for the EV industry, Stellantis and Zeta Energy Corp have teamed up to develop the next-generation EV battery with more range, more power, 50% faster charging, and at less than half the cost.

Lithium-ion batteries have powered the electric vehicle (EV) revolution since 2008, when Tesla introduced the Roadster to the world, powered by 53 kWh of Li-ion goodness, with a range of around 245 miles (394 km). The iconic Roadster nearly doubled the 140-mile (225 km) range of General Motors' 1999 EV1, which was powered by an incredibly heavy, 26.4 kWh nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery pack.

Despite lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries having been conceptualized in the 1960s, practical applications were limited due to issues like poor life cycles and capacity loss from something called "the polysulfide shuttle effect," unique to Li-S batteries. As the battery discharges, sulfur at the cathode side reacts with the lithium, creating lithium polysulfides which diffuse through the electrolyte to the anode leaving deposits. While charging, some polysulfides would migrate back to the cathode, but not all, degrading the battery very quickly.
Texas, USA-based Zeta, in partnership with global automotive giant, Stellantis, reckons it's got that figured out.

Recent advancements in material technology and the development of barriers and coatings trap these polysulfides, preventing them from "shuttling" between the electrodes, effectively fixing the pesky premature death effect.
https://newatlas.com/automotive/stellantis-zeta-lithium-sulfur-li-s-batteries/#gallery:1
Zeta Energy Corp uses unrefined sulfur – a byproduct or leftover waste of various industries – inside its Li-S batteries

The collaboration could mean a leap in EV battery technology:

Li-S is significantly lighter than their Li-ion counterparts. A Li-ion battery typically packs between 150-250 watt-hours per kilogram (Wh/kg) of energy in them. Li-S can achieve up to 400-600 Wh/kg. That's a lot of juice.
Li-S can provide same amount of power with a smaller package – meaning not only greater range in your EV because the batteries are going to weigh 30-50% less, but better handling and performance. The lighter, the better.
The two companies also claim improvements in fast-charging speeds by as much as 50% over traditional lithium-ion battery packs. Li-S has a simpler chemistry and doesn't rely on the slow diffusion of lithium ions into solid materials (like the graphite in Li-ion). Instead, reactions occur directly between the lithium and sulfur which is faster and more straightforward. They also operate at lower voltages, so they don't have as much resistance during charging, making them absorb energy more quickly.
The kicker: Li-S batteries are expected to cost less than half the price per kilowatt-hour than Li-ion.
Sulfur is abundant and Zeta's Li-S batteries use waste materials like methane and unrefined sulfur from various industries. They also ditch expensive, hard-to-source materials like cobalt, graphite, manganese or nickel; which Li-ion is also made from. Zeta's approach can utilize locally sourced materials and use existing factories to assemble its batteries, slashing CO2 emissions compared to existing battery tech.

“On or about 24 December 2021, the Criminal Court in Lubambashi handed down a judgement, with Dathcom and Mr Johnston in absentia,to the effect that:•the new share certificate along with the new shareholders’ register bothidentifying AVZI as a 75% shareholder of Dathcom wereforgeries;•Mr Graeme Johnston (as the managing director of Dathcom) as well as the registrar of the RCCMwere complicit in that forgery;•Mr Graeme Johnston was sentenced to threeyears in prison; •Dathcomwas ordered to pay damages ofUS$50,000,000; and•the updated share certificatealong with the new shareholders’ register issued by the RCCM be destroyed.”
We know that this is all rubbish but why didn’t AVZ notify shareholders of this?
Graham then in January, less than a month later sells approx $ 800k of shares. I think that needs to be investigated.
I am a long term holder with a lot invested and this really pissed me off.
Pure speculation on my part, but they will try anything. If they can get rid of AVZ than manono is up for grabs.
Just my thoughts

Funnily enough if you split the 2.5b - 10b (I assumed this was USD) down the middle you end up with 6.25b...... @Carlos Danger

I can’t recall exactly, but wasn’t this a rebalancing of Grahams SMSF and another director bought the shares anyway?

I think that's a legitimate question.

I don't know if you're linking it to the AFP visits / raid, but personally feel that they would be likely to visit his home if that were the reason.
I'm sure some 'friend' would be on hand to report it
Maybe, we need to discuss the reasons when they are known because I strongly suspect, like others here, that our Chinese / DRC / Australian enemies are beind this.

We know that comments here will be taken out of context on other SM.

Regarding BoD commenting on this, I believe that there are all sorts of legal restrictions on any open comment.
For that reason, I would not be disappointed with little or no comment.
Though WTF do I know? I'm no lawyer.

After all, it won't affect the SP. 😝

If it is an issue(selling shares) , is it not an issue with/for Graeme Johnston ? Got nothing to do with AVZ's fight moving forward .imo

Go AVZ!
If the shitfuckers have tried to do a job on AVZ by calling in the AFP I think it's a great opportunity for the BoD to provide some insight to the AFP exactly what fucking evil these shit cnts like Fat Slobs, Zijin, Cong, Leonard, Carrotfuck et al are up to

The shitfuckers started it........maybe it's the dumbest play on their behalf by effectively alerting the AFP to what's happening and giving AVZ a chance to put the story straight

Maybe the AFP will soon be knocking on a few other doors.....

Hi Lenny, hi Tommy, hi CarrotDick, hi Zijin......oh hurro Chinese embassy

What is Nigel doing with his time, if not writing a quick explanation to shareholders about what this relates to and why the FEDERAL POLICE ARE IN OUR OFFICE!!! sorry but this is very disappointing. Who gives 2 shits who posts it. The feds don’t fuck about. What is our position and why? NIGEL??? TAP TAP????

Maybe AVZ called the feds in because they felt like they were being hacked or tracked or bugged or something? Maybe they were there for us? No one knows!

Nothing to see here, we continue to wait for AVZ turn to shine in the midst of deep, deep....

:poop::poop::poop::ninja::ninja::ninja::devilish::devilish::devilish:
Mate the federal police don’t raid offices because of an anonymous call. Sorry but I doubt the Chinese could call the feds and get them to raid us! On what grounds? But also if this is the case. Then why is Nigel not on the email explaining exactly this. Just seems to me with this BOD. They are overpaid and disrespectful to the fact that 20000 people have given them substantial amounts of money.
Incorrect, Federal police can and do raid offices based on a substantial but unproven claims.

Obviously I don't know the justification provided, but a clever person could provide a story or falsify evidence to police, even stating that they received an 'anonymous tipoff' or anything in-between to trigger this. Our constant failing is a lack of imagination within this game.

If I was in the BOD position, I would have been doing absolutely everything above board for the last 3 years given the scrutiny of shareholders, governments, ASIC, enemies ect.. My point being, in my opinion, it's more likely this has been triggered by malicious actors rather than illegal activity by the BOD.

And to those of you who are saying 'Why haven't management responded yet?' - I am sure this, like many things over the past 2 years has blindsided them. Again underestimating how low our enemies will go. I imagine they are seeking legal advice, making their own enquiries and cooperating with police before providing any official response.

As I said RHyNO, just because you lack imagination doesn't mean our enemies do.

I don't want to be specific here and give anybody ideas - but there are absolutely ways to trigger an AFP raid through spurious and underhanded means. All of this will end up being a waste of police time.

It's all part of 'Unrestricted Warfare' to disrupt, distract and demoralize - of course the AFP won't find anything, but the headline is already out there.

And the headline 'AVZ Offices Raided by AFP' was the entire point of their operation.

I have a few thoughts on what they may try next..

So, its ok for the Australian Govt to support Iluka in its moment of crisis, but not AVZ, both bellwether coys in the critical mineral space with the latter posing the bigger dilemma if it falls in the wrong hands.

Oh, thats right, i forgot..... Iluka is ASX listed and AVZ aint, its a private coy ( thru no fault of its own ) , so stiff shit.

Yep Albo, that makes perfect sense.

Cunt.

So there's some wind that the Fat Tail blobs of puss hoped to get the AFP raid to occur before the AGM was held, and to then conduct some bullshit manouver at the AGM.
But they failed and were a no show as a result....
So sad boys.
So so so so so sad....

I can't be 100% with this info, but it coincides with what I could work out myself.
I'm not expecting to hear anything from the feds as a result of this raid, it seems it was all for show to facilitate a manouver against the BoD that we never saw play out.

*Shrugs*
Fuck em, we're now funded to nail them to the 10 billion dollar wall.
It's going to take some time, but they're set to sweat like utter MFs.
Crack a tinny, relax, and let this play out.
