Lithium-ion Battery Systems for Space Applications

Lithium-ion battery systems reliability for space applications can have severe consequences. Xerotech, a manufacturer of advanced lithium-ion batteries, is working with the European Space Agency to qualify their proprietary PPR technology for space applications.

Demonstrating that our proprietary PPR solution exceeds the extremely stringent requirements for space applications will provide tremendous technical validation of a core pillar of Xerotech’s battery safety concept which has already been proven in ground-based applications.” said Barry Flannery, CEO and Founder of Xerotech.

PPR, known as passive propagation resistant design, is a critical safety requirement for space missions; to include manned spaceflight. The technology can be applied to current and future space battery designs, potentially enabling previously impossible mission profiles and applications.
