Our facility

The Battery Research and Innovation Hub was developed with $10.9 million in co-funding by the Victorian Government and Deakin University and extends our research, manufacturing and testing capabilities.

Our specialised facility includes:

• 2,300m² engineering and office space, including a pilot-scale production line to manufacture advanced batteries.
• an expanded research line for pouch cell prototyping.
• a lab space for cell and pack testing.
• advanced cell diagnostics, materials characterisation and failure analysis.

It is Australia’s first pilot-scale production line for custom-designed advanced batteries with a projected production capacity of 500 kWh/year.
