Cadenza Innovation Inc. is an American developer and designer of lithium-ion battery technologies and energy storage. The company was founded in 2012 by inorganic chemist and battery researcher Christina Lampe-Önnerud.[1] Cadenza licenses its lithium ion cell architecture to global manufacturers for various energy storage applications.[2]

History

Lampe-Önnerud founded Cadenza Innovation while working as a member of the senior management for an investment management fund.[3] The company operates a facility in Wilton, Connecticut and has a research unit at the Duracell headquarters in Bethel, Connecticut.[4] The corporate headquarters is located in Danbury, Connecticut inside The Summit at Danbury office complex.[5]

In 2021, Cadenza announced a partnership with Rockwell Automation to establish high performance battery cell production lines.[6]

Technology

Cadenza Innovation's supercell battery architecture is designed to stop propagation during thermal runaway.[7] The design of the batteries combines properties from wound jelly rolls and large prismatic cells to form highly dense lithium-ion battery structures.[8]
