We are Métalectrique and we have a 12 year background of peer-reviewed R&D and have innovated simple but cost effective ways of using aluminium as a mobile source of electrical power. From our can battery, through MAAPS to our flexible cathode and beyond to the flexible battery (MAAPS-2), Métalectrique provides a new method of delivering mobile power; and our power is always CO2-free.

PRISMATIC PACK
MAL-R0117
This portable power pack in development has the following predicted capability at 100 Watts
-
Between 465 Wh and 2000 Wh of energy, depending on internal configuration. The pack lasts between 2.6 and 11 times longer than the incumbent lithium primary battery.
-
The pack is recyclable and has a life of 10 years.
-
The pack is compliant with all devices normally powered by a BA5590. It is a direct replacement.
MAAPS
Métalectrique Advanced Aluminium Power System
This is a new kind of mobile electrical power system, some people call it 'the electric engine'. MAAPS is CO2-free power system refuelled, not recharged. This would be done by automatic cassette exchange at a vehicle service point, but the range is much longer that for a rechargeable battery (1300Wh/kg) so these exchanges are infrequent.
Important key features of MAAPS:
-
Starts/stops the chemical reaction on demand
-
Keeps the reactive surface clear
-
Manages air and electrolyte transfer
-
Designed to be refuelled
-
Cassette system
-
Industrial automatic high speed refuelling
-
1300Wh/kg
-
Recyclable
MAAPS-2
Métalectrique Advanced Aluminium Power System 2
MAAPS-2 has a unique architecture which is designed for very high specific power and energy and has applications in defence, aircraft propulsion and high-power vehicles.
Key features include:
-
Pliable behaviour
-
High voltage/power per square metre
-
Long duration of operation
-
Recyclable
