About
Akshay Jain and Mahi Singh from Jaipur have developed a sustainable EV battery using nanocarbon derived fromcoconut waste. Their startup, Cancrie, leverages this eco-friendly material to enhance battery life and efficiency, offering an alternative to traditional lithium-ion batteries. The innovation aims to reduce electronic waste and reliance on non-renewable resources, contributing to a greener energy ecosystem. This technology holds promise for improving the sustainability of electric vehicles.
How it works
Cancrie’s technology extracts nanocarbon from coconut waste, which serves as an active material for electric vehicle batteries. This nanocarbon improves battery efficiency, enhances charge cycles, and offers a sustainable alternative to lithium-ion cells. The process promotes circular economy principles by converting agricultural waste into high-performance battery components, reducing environmental impact and resource dependency. This innovation contributes to greener EV solutions.
