The French startup Limatech is poised to launch its lithium aircraft starter battery aimed at decarbonizing aviation. This next-generation battery offers several advantages: it’s lighter, less toxic, and less polluting than traditional nickel batteries. DirectIndustry had the opportunity to interview Florence Robin, the co-founder of Limatech.
Founded in 2016 in Toulouse and stemming from CEA (the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission), the deep-tech industrial startup Limatech is introducing its lithium battery to decarbonize aviation. The company is awaiting certification before commercializing and supplying its first customers. It is also in the process of raising €20 million in funding. But what exactly is this battery, and what is its potential in the aerospace sector?
