Axion is developing advanced batteries and an energy storage product based on our patented lead carbon battery PbC Technology™.

Conventional lead-acid batteries use negative electrodes made of sponge lead pasted onto a lead grid current collector. In comparison, our technology uses negative electrodes made of microporous activated carbon with very high surface area. The result is a battery-supercapacitor hybrid that uses less lead.

The Axion PbC® technology is a "platform technology" which means that energy storage devices based on our technology can be configured to accommodate a wide range of energy storage and power delivery requirements by changing the number, geometry and arrangement of the electrodes.

Our PbC® technology represents the first major advance in lead-acid battery technology in 30 years.
