A closer look at graphite—its forms, functions and future in EV batteries

Charged EVs

Graphite is the critical component of all current anode designs. Some advanced designs use a small amount of silicon, which can store more energy. Graphex is a major global producer and distributor of graphite in its various forms. In some cases it’s a hundred percent—it really depends on the design from the battery maker.
