HPQ Silicon Fast-Tracks Breakthrough Battery Tech From Lab to Production

AGORACOM Small Cap CEO Interviews

FROM LAB SUCCESS TO MARKET-READY PRODUCT

HPQ Silicon $HPQ / $HPQFF has moved from prototype to production in record time, delivering its first commercial-scale silicon-anode battery cells — a milestone that positions the company at the forefront of a ~$16B market for mobility, electronics, and energy storage.

The company began manufacturing HPQ ENDURA+ 18650 and 21700 cells, delivering 4,000 mAh and 6,000 mAh capacity with lifespans approaching 1,000 cycles — performance that CEO Bernard Tourillon says is “unheard of” in commercially sized batteries. Independent third-party validation confirmed the results first achieved at the lab scale are now replicable in industrial production.

GLOBAL INTEREST AND STRATEGIC POSITIONING

• Inquiries from Asia, Europe, and North America including power tool, e-bike, drone, and military suppliers

• Partnership discussions underway with industry leaders, including graphite producers seeking to enhance their products with HPQ’s silicon-anode material

• Ability to integrate into existing battery manufacturing lines without costly retooling

“We continue to receive inquiries from global potential customers and are engaging in technical discussions with leading industry players… With production now underway, we anticipate an acceleration of partnership opportunities as soon as we start delivering.” — Bernard Tourillon, CEO, HPQ Silicon

SCALABLE GROWTH POTENTIAL

The company estimates that a 50-ton annual production facility for its proprietary silicon-anode material — an investment of $5–$7 million — could supply up to 25–30 million batteries. With North American exclusivity via its partnership with Novacium, HPQ is positioned to scale quickly as orders come in.

HPQ has compressed the typical multi-year commercialization cycle into under 18 months, leapfrogging the pilot phase and moving directly to commercial manufacturing. By demonstrating its technology in market-ready cells, HPQ aims to convert competitors into customers, accelerate adoption, and secure a foothold in high-value battery segments.

Bottom line: HPQ Silicon is no longer just developing — it’s delivering. With global attention, validated performance, and a clear path to scale, the company is poised to become a key supplier in the next generation of high-performance batteries.
