Vianode’s plans to build a graphite plant in Ontario have suffered a setback, with the federal government opposing the Norwegian company’s proposal to build the facility on the grounds of ...

Graphite is a critical component for the production of lithium-ion batteries. The high-performance solution now presented is part of Vianode’s “next-generation material series,” the company says, ...

This multi-billion-dollar agreement will see Vianode supply GM with synthetic graphite, a critical material for lithium-ion batteries. It also aligns with GM's goals of creating a more sustainable ...

The first phase for the new Vianode facility will include the production of 75,000 metric tons (or 82,673 tons) of synthetic graphite annually, with plans to expand capacity to 150,000 metric tons ...

The synthetic graphite will be shipped from a large-scale plant that Vianode is building in North America. It will be supplied to Ultium Cells, GM’s joint venture with LG Energy Solution, and be ...

General Motors (GM) has announced a groundbreaking multi-year, multi-billion-dollar agreement with Norway’s Vianode to supply synthetic graphite anode materials for its EV batteries. The deal ...

The agreement “covers development of large-scale manufacturing capacity and supply of synthetic anode graphite towards 2033,” Vianode said in a statement.

Vianode claims that its synthetic anode graphite provides a 90-percent reduction in CO 2 emissions compared to traditional production methods. At present, China controls roughly 95 percent of the ...

Vianode said that, by weight, anode graphite is the largest component of a lithium-ion battery; and its synthetic graphite production has a 90% lower CO2 footprint than natural graphite, which is ...

The synthetic graphite will be used for EV batteries made by the Ultium Cells joint venture between GM and LG Energy Solution. The deal will run from 2027 when Vianode launches production at a ...

Vianode, however, offers a more sustainable alternative, producing synthetic anode graphite with a carbon dioxide footprint 90% lower than that of conventional methods.
