Collaboration builds on strategic investment and will accelerate the development of next-generation anode materials for the battery supply chain

HOUSTON & BRISBANE, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) and NOVONIX Limited (ASX: NVX, OTC: NVNXF) today announced they have signed a technology development agreement to advance the production and commercialization of next-generation anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

�This agreement builds on our strategic investment in NOVONIX and is a natural next step for two companies committed to innovation and a lower-carbon future,� said Ann Oglesby, Vice President of Energy Research & Innovation at Phillips 66. �It sets the framework for the companies to work closely and collaboratively to accelerate the development of next-generation materials for the U.S. battery supply chain.�

Phillips 66 became a major investor in NOVONIX in September of 2021, when it acquired a 16% stake in the company. The investment is supporting NOVONIX�s growth as it scales up production and develops new technologies for higher-performance energy storage applications.

�We are excited to further our relationship with Phillips 66, and together we plan to develop integral processes, from manufacturing precursor materials to producing high-capacity long-life synthetic graphite anode material intended to improve battery performance, lower cost and decrease environmental impact,� said NOVONIX CEO Chris Burns, Ph.D. �We believe NOVONIX is currently the only supplier with plans to provide large volumes of synthetic graphite anode material in the U.S., and this partnership will accelerate our mission to establish a North American supply chain to power the growing battery sector and facilitate a sustainable future.�

Under the agreement, Phillips 66 and NOVONIX will leverage leading positions in their respective industries � as well as existing intellectual property and R&D capabilities � to drive commercial development of optimized feedstocks and lithium-ion anode materials with reduced carbon-intensive processing.

Phillips 66 is a leading global manufacturer of specialty coke, a key precursor to the synthetic graphite anode material NOVONIX produces. The company is one of the few downstream companies with an in-house research and development organization. Its Energy Research & Innovation group works on developing lower-carbon technologies to support the energy transition, including next-generation batteries.

NOVONIX is a leading producer of synthetic graphite anode materials used in the making of lithium-ion batteries that power electric vehicles, personal electronics, medical devices and energy storage units. NOVONIX�s anode materials business is based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where it is increasing capacity to produce 10,000 metric tons per year of synthetic graphite by 2023, 40,000 mt/year by 2025 and 150,000 mt/year by 2030.
