Exhibited Products

EnerCera, lithium-ion rechargeable battery series

EnerCera Series is an ultra-thin and compact lithium-ion rechargeable battery. The semi-solid-state battery, using our proprietary crystal-oriented ceramic electrode plate, has the characteristics ideal for IoT sensor applications. These characteristics include high capacity, high output, high heat resistance, and long life, which were difficult to coexist with conventional lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. In addition, when combined with power delivery technologies such as photovoltaics and wireless power transfer (WPT), EnerCera enables a self-sustaining IoT device that can be used for a long time without replacing the battery. We are contributing to the miniaturization and high functionality of IoT devices such as environmental sensors, position trackers, wearables, and flexible sensor tags. NGK’s exhibit will include the products of these partner companies.
