eJoule Secures Series D Funding to Boost Output of High-Performance Single Crystal Cathode Material for Electric and Autonomous Aerial Vehicles
FREMONT, Calif. and LAS VEGAS, Dec. 25, 2025 — The California-based firm is set to present at the 9th annual review of Top Tech Trends, featuring innovators from Silicon Valley to Asia in the fields of Electric Vehicles, Autonomous Vehicles, and Supply Chain.
eJoule Inc will outline its advancements in streamlining the synthesis and manufacturing of Lithium-Ion cathode active material (CAM), the costliest component in Lithium-Ion battery production and the key factor defining maximum energy potential. The company’s CAM fulfills the top-tier specifications and performance criteria demanded by supply chains for Electric Vehicles, Autonomous Aerial Systems, and other uses. eJoule’s expansion initiatives are focused on supplying CAM for these sectors, and it is presently raising a Series D round to increase its manufacturing capacity.
Central to eJoule’s innovation is its patented (38 issued / 44 pending) and trade-secret-protected DCP®, or Dynamic Crystallization® Process. This closed-loop, modular, and scalable synthesis technique transforms engineered liquid chemical solution droplets directly into cathode powder in a single thermal stage. Every droplet contains the complete metal salt and dopant mixture, guaranteeing consistent integration and removing the inconsistencies associated with co-precipitation or multi-step calcination methods.
“Our proprietary method bypasses traditional precursors by creating single crystal cathode particles straight from solution droplets. This grants us exact command over dopant makeup and coating, an essential requirement for high-performance lithium-ion cathode material,” stated Liang Chen, Ph.D., CEO of eJoule Inc.
eJoule intends to construct CAM production facilities with a scalable range from 1 to 40 GWh (up to 50,000 metric tons capacity). These plants are assembled in sections using a scalable architecture similar to a semiconductor fabrication plant. Owing to the process’s modular design, minimal water use, and controlled waste management, facilities can be situated in any appropriate location. eJoule attains a minimal carbon footprint. For an equivalent production output, an eJoule plant costs roughly half as much and occupies about half the land area compared to conventional methods. The company’s precursor-free process generates no wastewater, and total water usage is significantly reduced relative to traditional processes. Furthermore, eJoule’s method does not create hard-to-manage sulfate waste, unlike conventional approaches.
