Silicon anode materials for higher-energy-density lithium-ion batteries
About Nexeon
Nexeon is a UK battery-materials company developing silicon anode materials that replace or supplement graphite in lithium-ion cells to raise energy density for electric vehicles, consumer electronics and stationary storage. Its NSP-family materials are designed as drop-in upgrades for existing cell manufacturing; the company has R&D and scale-up operations in the UK and brought online a volume silicon-carbon production plant in Gunsan, South Korea. In August 2026 Nexeon closed a £100 million (about €117 million / $133 million) investment round including £52.6 million from the UK National Wealth Fund, with Korea Development Bank and Honda Xcelerator Ventures among new investors, to expand UK pilot manufacturing, R&D and advanced manufacturing capacity and strengthen the domestic battery supply chain.
