Novusterra prepares to go public

Novusterra is reportedly preparing for its initial public offering. The private company filed a securities registration last month and said it plans to go public within 90 days. It hopes to be approved to trade on the OTCQB Venture Market, often used by companies that are still developing.

This seems to be an ambitious move for Novusterra, a company that is still in the testing-and-evaluation phase of its products. The startup was founded in 2020 by Andrew Weeraratne, who served as CEO until he left the company in 2022.

Cerebral Energy and Cornell University secure funding for lithium-free aluminum-graphene batteries to support Air Force Special Operations

Cerebral Energy has announced it has been selected by AFWERX (the innovation arm of the U.S Air Force, powered by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL)) for a Phase II STTR follow-on contract in the amount of $1.6 million to support further development of a new lithium-free secondary battery using recycled aluminum and graphene derived from recycled US waste streams. 

The technology was developed by Dr. Lynden Archer - Dean of the School of Engineering at Cornell University and licensed by Cerebral. The novel aluminum battery design is over 3X more efficient than lithium, and said to be much safer (no fire risk), 10X faster charging and has no supply chain challenges since the materials are derived from US waste streams. Known as "AGILE," the batteries will first support Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) medical modernization teams to address their pressing tactical power issues.

Cemex awarded funding to decarbonize concrete with graphene

Over a year ago, it was reported that First Graphene was working with a subsidiary of Mexican multi-national building materials company CEMEX, to trial graphene in railway sleepers cast using recycled aggregates. Now, it was announced that Cemex was granted funding from Innovate UK’s decarbonizing concrete fund for a research project into the use of graphene in concrete. The use of graphene within a concrete mix has the potential to significantly reduce CO2 emissions by using less material whilst still achieving the same structural performance.

The grant was awarded as part of a consortium which Cemex will lead, working in partnership with Galliford Try, Sika, Northumbria Water and the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) at the University of Manchester, and totals around £400k.
