StoreDot

StoreDot is a developer of <a href="/facts/Lithium-ion_battery/3L22xFhB">lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries</a> for <a href="/facts/Electric_vehicle/jhCbx5ur">electric vehicles</a> founded in 2012 by Doron Myersdorf, Simon Litsyn, and Gil Rosenman. It is based in <a href="/facts/Herzliya/L16PmTJU">Herzliya</a>, Israel.
The company was founded around developing <a href="/facts/Peptide/C4ltc7UG">peptide</a>-based <a href="/facts/Mobile_phone/H3EcqD9h">mobile phone</a> displays and <a href="/facts/Data_storage/uCvJ6nrq">data storage</a>. The company reported it was ready to commercially release these products: peptide-based displays by 2016; peptide-based batteries for mobile phones that fully charge in 30 seconds by 2016; <a href="/facts/Germanium/wtoALHGs">germanium</a>-based mobile phone batteries by 2019; <a href="/facts/Electric_car/agINmGGQ">electric car</a> and <a href="/facts/UAV/qt87T19t">aerial drone</a> batteries that fully charge in five minutes by 2020; and scooter batteries that fully charge in under five minutes by 2021. None of the aforementioned products have been commercially released as of March 2022.
The company started promoting its <a href="/facts/Silicon/cgWx0hdr">silicon</a>-based electric vehicle battery in 2019, which it aimed to mass-manufacture in 2024 and deliver commercially in 2025. As of October 2024, StoreDot batteries are still in the testing phase and they have not been incorporated into any upcoming vehicle platforms.
The company stated its silicon batteries are capable of 270kW charging. The company does not plan to become a battery manufacturer or supplier, but instead plans to license its technology to major manufacturers or lease dedicated manufacturing capacity from existing suppliers, saying its silicon batteries can be manufactured using existing factories and manufacturing processes.
