A123Systems’ technology is uniquely applicable to the expanding aviation industry, both commercial and VLJs, bringing numerous benefits to jet engine start and APU start applications.

Offering a significant weight reduction over existing NiCad and lead acid commercially available aircraft batteries, A123’s drop-in replacements are based on existing aircraft battery designs, allowing OEM aircraft manufacturers a clear path to a lithium-ion solution. By integrating on-board balancing, design flexibility via both modular and mono-block construction to fit existing enclosures, A123 offers a cost-effective long-term solution.

A123’s Nanophosphate™ technology offers exceptional cycle and calendar life versus NiCad and lead acid solutions, which translates to fewer maintenance cycles, and lower overall ownership costs.

A safer cathode material than alternative lithium ion chemistries means no increased safety hazard versus other lead acid and NiCad solutions.
