Green Graphite Technologies commercializes a proprietary graphite purification platform that transforms mined and recycled graphite into high‑purity spherical graphite for lithium‑ion batteries. Their GraphPure™ and GraphRenew™ processes cut operating costs by about 50% and lower environmental impact, while a modular plant design enables rapid scaling to 20,000 tpa and domestic supply for North American EV battery manufacturers.

Problem
Electric vehicle battery manufacturers face a shortage of high‑purity, battery‑grade graphite, with most existing supply coming from large, environmentally harmful plants in China. The current processes are costly, have significant safety and emissions concerns, and lack domestic capacity to meet growing demand.
Solution
Green Graphite Technologies (GGT) commercializes a proprietary graphite purification platform that converts mined and recycled graphite into high‑purity spherical graphite suitable for lithium‑ion batteries. Their GraphPure™ and GraphRenew™ processes reduce operating costs by roughly 50% and lower environmental impact through modular, low‑energy chemistry. GGT operates pilot‑scale facilities to validate feedstock and performance, and is scaling toward a 20,000‑tonne‑per‑annum modular package capable of 50 kg/hour production by 2027, with a first commercial North American plant slated for 2029. By providing a domestic, cost‑effective source of battery‑grade graphite, GGT aims to secure supply chains for EV manufacturers and reduce reliance on overseas producers.
Target Audience
Primary customers are lithium‑ion battery manufacturers and EV battery pack producers in North America seeking a reliable, domestic source of high‑performance graphite.
