By NDB
Long-life batteries eliminate manufacturing and disposal emissions from billions of traditional batteries. By replacing lithium-ion batteries and fossil fuel-based power sources, NDB batteries will avoid an estimated 2.4 million tons of CO₂e emissions annually by 2034. This is equivalent to removing ~520,000 cars from the road each year. Off-grid power solutions replace diesel generators and other carbon-intensive energy sources. Recycling Nuclear Waste: Repurposing radioactive materials prevents environmental harm and creates value from waste.
Never-recharge nuclear voltaic technology Revolutionary battery technology that generates continuous power from radioactive decay, eliminating the need for external charging throughout its operational lifetime. 01 Nuclear Voltaic Architecture Combines radioisotope emitters with advanced NDB T1 transducers and optimized collectors forming ohmic and Schottky contacts. Energetic radiation from decay scatters and deposits energy directly into transducing elements, generating electricity autonomously. 02 Advanced Semiconductor Matrix Silicon carbide (SiC) and proprietary liquid semiconductor transducers form the core of our energy conversion system, providing exceptional radiation tolerance and thermal management. Enhanced with multi-layer encapsulation for additional mechanical protection and radiation containment, creating a tamper-proof, maintenance-free power source. 03 Multi-Barrier Safety System Defense-in-depth strategy with ion implantation lock-in mechanism prevents access to radioactive material. Multiple independent protective layers ensure thermal, mechanical, and radiation safety exceeding international nuclear standards. 04 Integrated Energy Storage Built-in charge storage captures excess energy during idle periods, ensuring optimal power delivery when needed. Unlike chemical batteries, the source never degrades, providing consistent output throughout its isotopic lifetime. 1,000+ Years operational life (up to) 100% Never-recharge capability Steady Recharge cycles Zero Maintenance required
