Dear Mr Parekh,

Thanks for your mail and I am to say that at present CECRI does not work on Al/air. However, we did this work in 1985 to 1995 and gave up due to various reasons.

I have also seen the PHINERGY news and also the video and looks interesting.

Best Regards

Dear Shri Gopukumarji,

I read with interest following news report :

Huge demand for CECRI’s lithium-ion cells ,

Where you say :

If mass-produced, cells made with CECRI’s technology can be sold cheaper than those imported from China

Article also talks about development efforts going on , in respect of :

Sodium-ion cells

Lithium-Air , Lithium Titanium Oxide and Sodium Air , cells

In this context , no doubt , you might be aware that Ashok Leyland has tied up with an Israeli Company , PHINERGY , for development of Metal Air battery made of Aluminium

Is CERCI working on this ?

In this context , you might want to look up :
