We are doubling our production capacity!

!!!Exciting news!!! We are doubling our planned production capacity. Instead of the planned 4,000 tons per year, our new plant will be able to produce 8,000 tons per year! Construction is in full swing. Recently two 20m3 storage tanks for our electrolytes were delivered.
To meet the high demand for tailor-made electrolyte solutions, our production plant, which was already designed for scaling in the initial planning, is now being completed for a throughput of at least 8,000 tons of electrolyte solution per year. The plant is on track to start production in early 2024 and is expected to be expanded by 2026. Furthermore, what is special about our plant is that due to its unique flexible design and high degree of digitalization, the plant is not limited to specific electrolyte formulations! Part of our mission is to produce the perfect electrolyte for each energy storage system. We will remain true to this mission also with our large-scale production!
The first 200 L barrels are on their way to our customer's cell production!

Since the beginning of this year, our pilot plant in Kaiserslautern, where high-quality electrolytes are produced in a unique process, has been running at full speed.
In an interview in “Wir.Hier – Die Chemieunternehmen in Rheinland-Pfalz” (Wir.Hier – Chemical Companies in Rhineland-Palatinate), our Managing Director Ralf Wagner, PhD, answers the question of how his early vision of founding a company made it possible for E-Lyte to grow from a small electrolyte manufacturer to an internationally competitive large-scale producer within a very short time.
