Winner in the Corporate LiveWire Innovation & Excellence Awards 2025 

ACT-ion Battery Technologies is a Dallas-based industrial materials manufacturer, building a new paradigm of battery material manufacturing for next generation energy storage. The innovative company uses a pioneering approach that addresses performance and sustainability at scale: a proprietary high-throughput continuous process that reimagines how single crystal cathode active materials are made. Unlike conventional batch methods, ACT-ions platform dramatically reduces waste, water usage and harmful emissions, aligning directly with the global push for decarbonisation and clean energy and offering a huge leap in the way lithium battery materials can be produced. ACT-ion Battery Technologies is renowned for being chemistry-agnostic, designed to accommodate a range of material types including LFP, LFMP and advanced nickel and cobalt-free cathodes.
 
As well as its groundbreaking processes, the manufacturing specialists offer benefits for clients across cost, performance and scalability. The cathode materials produced meet or exceed industry performance benchmarks, but at a significantly lower cost. By making their services more affordable, the experts widen the path for a broader adoption of next-generation batteries, especially in markets where cost has traditionally been a limiting factor. Combined with a reduced environmental footprint, the result is a more accessible and sustainable energy future. ACT-ion’s manufacturing system is designed for rapid expansion — from pilot phases to full commercial scale in the multi-kiloton per annum range — validated through successful demonstrations at Argonne National Laboratory as well as their own facilities.
 
The judging panel was particularly impressed by the diverse applications of the battery materials manufactured at ACT-ion Battery Technologies. The company’s technology serves an addressable market exceeding $23 billion, spanning electric vehicles, energy storage systems, defence, aerospace, data centres and industrial tools. This broad applicability across multiple sectors underscores the relevance and timeliness of the companys innovation, which is grounded in scientific rigour but also built with real-world use cases in mind. Through technical expertise, sustainability and a scalable manufacturing model, ACT-ion Battery Technologies will play a pivotal role in the global transition to clean energy.
