From electric vehicles (EVs) to renewable energy storage to consumer electronics, lithium-ion batteries are powering the world around us. Over the next decade, the market for these batteries is expected to grow more than five times from what it is today.

Rugged field testing meets real-time analysis

Before batteries can power our vehicles and personal devices, raw materials like lithium, nickel, manganese, cobalt, and graphite must first be extracted. SPECTRO Analytical Instruments designs and manufactures cutting-edge spectrometers that bring lab-grade analysis to remote locations to help determine the purity level of these materials—a critical step in developing battery technology. Spectrometers from SPECTRO provide real-time data to help drive maximum efficiency and output while ensuring the right elemental composition, which is key for battery performance.
