Novonix has been appointed by Lake Resources to produce high-performance lithium-ion battery test cells

Novonix Battery Testing Services Inc. (ASX: NVX) has been appointed by Lake Resources (ASX: LKE) to produce high-performance lithium-ion battery test cells using Lake's lithium carbonate.

Lake's Managing Director, Stephen Promnitz, says Novonix is a highly-respected and groundbreaking battery testing company. "The team are known as world leaders in new battery technologies, as shown by the quality of their global client base," he said.

"With EV makers accelerating their production plans, high-purity and responsibly sourced lithium is in increasingly short supply globally. We look forward to expediting the results from Novonix and providing samples to potential off-take partners as soon as possible," he added.

"Using Novonix’s pilot cell line and proprietary advanced diagnostic tools, the performance of Lake’s high purity, responsibly sourced lithium product will be evaluated for conformity with lithium-ion battery standards," Lake Resources said.
