Factorial Energy Secures First Commercial Drone Battery Order

Factorial Energy announced its first commercial drone-battery order, moving into the aerospace sector by supplying high-energy-density lithium-metal cells to be integrated into battery packs by a U.S.-based integrator after successful drone testing that showed a flight-range boost of about 30%. The milestone follows prior automotive testing with partners like Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis, underscores a broader push into defense, space, and energy storage, and is supported by investors including IQT.

EnerSys plans 1 GWh defense-focused lithium plant

EnerSys has refined its Greenville, South Carolina lithium-ion plant plan to a defense- and aerospace-focused facility with an initial capacity of about 1 gigawatt-hour and a smaller footprint, backed by roughly $150 million in DOE grants and about $200 million in state and local incentives, for a total investment near $500 million and board approval. The project targets FEOC-compliant, U.S.-based production to bolster national security and supply chain resilience, moving away from Verkor technology in favor of its defense-focused supplier network, with construction expected in early FY2028 and production about three years later.

The U.S.’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) self-feeding frenzy is still … frenzy-ing. Except everything about it seems fake.

Perth man critically injured after robot vacuum explodes

In Brabham, Perth, Lachie Perrem, 25, suffered burns to about 75% of his body when a robot vacuum exploded after a leaking lithium-ion battery ignited while he cooked, destroying his home and prompting investigations into the device. His mother, Fiona Perrem, has shared new details of the incident and says he’s waking from an induced coma and making progress after multiple surgeries, with a GoFundMe raising over $40,000 to help with medical and living costs.
