The first collaboration with NEI , signed on November 18, 2024, focuses on developing graphene-enhanced battery materials, featuring co-branded products and positioning NEI as a key channel partner. The second partnership with Volfpack Energy, also signed on November 18, 2024, aims to create next-generation supercapacitors using HydroGraph's fractal graphene technology. Initial testing showed a 4x increase in capacitance compared to standard versions. The development roadmap includes lab-scale production in Q1 2025, followed by pilot-scale production later that year.
HydroGraph Clean Power ha annunciato due partnership strategiche nel campo dei materiali per batterie. La prima collaborazione con NEI, firmata il 18 novembre 2024, si concentra sullo sviluppo di materiali per batterie potenziati al grafene, con prodotti co-branded e posizionando NEI come un partner chiave nel canale. La seconda partnership con Volfpack Energy, anch'essa firmata il 18 novembre 2024, mira a creare supercondensatori di nuova generazione utilizzando la tecnologia del grafene frattale di HydroGraph. I test iniziali hanno mostrato un raddoppiamento della capacità di accumulo rispetto alle versioni standard. Il roadmap di sviluppo prevede la produzione su scala di laboratorio nel primo trimestre del 2025, seguita da una produzione su scala pilota più avanti nello stesso anno.

New partnerships to advance breakthroughs in battery materials
TORONTO, Nov. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. (CSE: HG) (OTCQB: HGRAF) (FRA: M98) (the “Company” or “HydroGraph”), a sustainable commercial manufacturer of pristine graphene, announced today two new collaborations in battery materials with Volfpack Energy and NEI Corporation.
NEI Corporation Partnership
HydroGraph’s new collaboration with NEI Corporation, signed on November 18, 2024, an established supplier of specialty materials to the battery industry, will focus on accelerating the development and commercialization of advanced graphene-enhanced battery materials.
NEI Corporation brings extensive experience in working with product developers and research teams through every phase, from initial R&D through to production scale-up. The partnership will feature co-branded products, combining both companies' technological expertise and market presence to accelerate adoption of graphene additives in the battery industry.
This agreement positions NEI as a key channel partner for HydroGraph's graphene materials in the battery market, including graphene-enhanced electrodes and dispersions. The partnership aims to develop innovative materials and products for applications such as lithium-ion and lithium-silicon batteries.
“This collaboration leverages HydroGraph’s proprietary fractal graphene technology alongside NEI’s expertise in battery materials, to address the rising demand for advanced solutions that enhance battery performance and drive next-generation energy storage,” said Kjirstin Breure, president and CEO of HydroGraph.
“Together we are enabling the global distribution of advanced graphene battery materials to research institutions and product developers, highlighting our shared commitment to delivering high-performance, sustainable energy solutions worldwide,” said Kjirstin Breure, CEO of Hydrograph.
Volfpack Energy Partnership
The partnership with Volfpack Energy, signed on November 18, 2024, a hardware company focused on using supercapacitor technology to increase the adoption of renewable energy, will focus on creating next-generation supercapacitors, utilizing HydroGraph's fractal graphene technology (FGA-1).
Initial testing demonstrated that supercapacitors enhanced with HydroGraph’s fractal graphene deliver a remarkable 4x increase in capacitance, compared to standard versions. These enhanced supercapacitors are designed to meet the demands of rapidly growing markets, including Internet of Things (IoT) devices, energy harvesting applications, wearable technology, and solar energy systems.
“Advancing the performance of energy storage devices remains a vital growth focus for HydroGraph. This partnership combines our cutting-edge graphene technology with Volfpack Energy’s expertise in supercapacitor development and manufacturing,” said Breure. “Together, we’re able to deliver groundbreaking energy solutions that meet the evolving needs of the market”.
The development roadmap for the supercapacitors includes lab-scale production set for Q1 2025, followed by pilot-scale production later in the year. Global availability of the product is anticipated soon after.
