  • Comment: Please actually read the criteria required for the sources, including the bit about in-depth, and the part of that that says routine coverage such as capital raises and acquisitions do not generally count towards requirements. Alpha3031 (t • c) 03:21, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: You are welcome to rewrite the article, but do not remove the AfC history as you did here. Bobby Cohn (talk) 19:48, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Hard to escape the impression that this is a promotional piece; actual notability is difficult to assess in part because of incomplete citations, and many of the citations (bare URLs) being company links. Drmies (talk) 23:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Thanks for your submission! I am declining this for now as the draft relies too heavily on primary sources and does not establish the subject's notability. Please click on the links above for more information, and change the sourcing to use more reliable sources instead. A couple of the links currently in § External links could be good resources. Let me know if you have any questions! (please Reply to icon mention me on reply; thanks!) —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 22:04, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Group14 Technologies is an American manufacturer and supplier of advanced silicon battery technology for rechargeable lithium-silicon batteries.[1][2][3]

Headquartered in Woodinville, Washington, Group14 operates one commercial factory in Woodinville, Washington, and is building a second commercial factory in Moses Lake, Washington.[4][5]

Group14's customers include Porsche and Amperex Technology Limited (ATL) for smartphones.[6][7]

History

Group14 was founded in 2015 by Rick Luebbe and Dr. Rick Costantino.[8][9]

In April 2021, Group14 built its first commercial Battery Active Materials factory (BAM-1) in Woodinville, Washington.[4][10][11]

In October 2022, Group14 announced it received $100 million as part of the Battery Materials Processing and Battery Manufacturing award from the US Department of Energy's Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains (MESC).[12][13]

In April 2023, Group14 announced plans to build its second commercial BAM factory (BAM-2) in Moses Lake, Washington.[11][14][15]

In September 2024, Group14 announced it had been selected for an award negotiation of up to $200M by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains.[16][17]

Technology

Group14’s flagship product is SCC55™, a silicon-carbon composite anode material that promises up to 50% greater energy density and 0-80% fast-charging in under 10 minutes.[2][7][12][18]

Applications

In May 2022, Porsche AG announced plans to produce lithium-silicon battery cells with Group14's technology in Germany in 2024 to help power their electric vehicles.[6][7][19][20]

Group14 also announced that it supplies SCC55™ to consumer electronics manufacturer Amperex Technology Limited (ATL) for smartphones.[1][18]
