Genuine innovations arise 
when the obvious is questioned

Why do batteries age? Do batteries have to age? Can battery ageing be solved at its chemical root? These are the questions that have driven our research from the beginning.

Together with our partners and supporters, we are taking on the challenge of rethinking energy storage and shaping a safer and more sustainable energy future.

A path of responsibility

For us, the development of a new battery technology is a path of
responsibility. The foreseeable demand for lithium-ion batteries is gigantic and harbours the risk of replacing one sustainability problem with another.
Because every new battery also means lithium mining, CO2 emissions and, at some point, hazardous waste. This raises the question of which technology we want to scale up. We at HPB are dedicated to creating new battery technologies that are safer, longer lasting and greener than conventional lithium-ion batteries.

FAQs

What is the relationship between HPB Holding AG and HPB Technology GmbH?

HPB Technology GmbH, based in Bonn, Germany, is a wholly owned subsidiary of HPB Holding AG, based in Teufen, Switzerland. HPB Holding AG is solely responsible for financing the operating activities of HPB Technology GmbH; it has no operating activities of its own. All patents are held by HPB Technology GmbH in Germany, as is technology licensing. The acquisition of shares in HPB Holding AG is therefore directly linked to the assets in HPB Technology GmbH. In Switzerland, corporate financing through an AG is also a standard instrument for start-ups.
