Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 26, 2024) - Energy Plug Technologies Corp. (CSE: PLUG) (OTCQB: PLGGF) (FSE: 6GQ) ("Energy Plug" or the "Company"), an energy technology company dedicated to innovation and sustainability, announces that, together with Malahat Battery Technologies Corp., it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with GUS Technology Co Ltd. ("GUS TECH") to supply Lithium Titanium Oxide ("LTO") battery cells across Canada, North America, and Latin America (LATAM). This collaboration aims to introduce LTO chemistry to early adopter customers and enhance industrial, military and marine energy mobility and storage markets with advanced LTO technology.
About GUS TECH
GUS TECH is a leader in research and development, manufacturing, and production of LTO battery cells. Their innovative approach and cutting-edge technology are set to redefine energy storage solutions across various sectors.
Industrial and Marine BESS Markets
Energy Plug is currently marketing, selling, and deploying Commercial & Industrial (C&I) Battery Energy Storage System ("BESS") applications in the Canadian market. Energy Plug aims to enter the marine market with a marine enclosure featuring superior battery chemistry and class certification. The collaboration with GUS TECH will enable Energy Plug to localize units for deployment throughout Canada, the USA, and LATAM markets. This initiative could deliver a robust and reliable energy solution for marine applications.
Collaboration and Roles
Under the MOU, the parties agree to collaborate on the following areas:
- GUS TECH will supply LTO cells for diverse BESS applications.
- Energy Plug will focus on securing customers, managing logistics, localization, and customer relations.
- The parties will collaborate on joint R&D projects relevant to the North American and LATAM markets. Each project will be independently evaluated for investment and intellectual property ownership, ensuring strategic and innovative advancements in energy storage solutions.
- Energy Plug plans to manufacture GUS TECH LTO cells at its proposed and future assembly facilities. The parties will assess feasibility, potential issues, equipment requirements, and output possibilities, with the goal of establishing dedicated production lines for integrating GUS TECH's LTO cells into Energy Plug's modules and packs.
The parties intend to negotiate in good faith and execute a binding agreement within sixty days of the execution of the MOU.
Advantages of LTO Batteries
- Longer Life Cycle: LTO batteries offer an exceptional cycle life, often surpassing 20,000 charge-discharge cycles. This extended duration reduces the need for frequent battery replacements, thereby lowering the overall cost of ownership for consumers and businesses.
- Fire Resistance & Safety: LTO batteries exhibit minimal thermal runaway, cell swelling, or dendrite growth compared to NMC/g cells. These safety features are particularly advantageous for heavy-duty sectors where batteries are exposed to harsh environments.
