Vianode, a cutting-edge battery materials company, has recently confirmed its world-leading climate impact potential in a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of its planned industrial scale production. The company specializes in providing sustainable anode graphite solutions for electric vehicles (EVs).
The LCA results reveal that Vianode’s production process generates only 1.9 kilo CO2 equivalents per kilo of graphite produced, showcasing a potential CO2 emission reduction of over 90% compared to traditional fossil-based production methods. This is a significant milestone in the industry, as Vianode aims to revolutionize the way batteries and battery materials are produced.
Burkhard Straube, the CEO of Vianode, expressed the company’s commitment to sustainability and high-performance properties. The company’s solutions not only offer faster charging and longer service life for EVs but also ensure better recyclability. By establishing industrial scale production in North America and Europe, Vianode aims to create resilient local value chains.
Lydia Bridges, a senior sustainability consultant, praised Vianode’s synthetic anode graphite production for its low CO2 footprint and potential to reduce emissions within the battery and EV value chain. The sustainable production of anode graphite is crucial for the green transition of mobility, with graphite playing a significant role in battery pack emissions.
Vianode’s impressive results from the LCA study demonstrate its dedication to sustainability. With plans to expand production capacity and supply high-performance anode graphite solutions to millions of EVs annually by 2030, Vianode is poised to make a significant impact on the industry’s environmental footprint.
