Home-grown cell manufacturer Godi India on Monday said it has produced the country’s first ever 5.2 Ah 21700 cylindrical lithium-ion cells with an energy density of 275 Wh/kg based on silicon anode technology which will allow an electric vehicle to achieve a greater range compared to graphite on a single charge.
The Hyderabad-based company has already completed the first batch of deliveries of cells to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in India to be used in electric two-wheelers. The company, which began its production in 2020 at its Hyderabad facility, recently got the BIS certification following rigorous testing of the cells for over six months.
