HPQ Silicon Inc. (“HPQ” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: HPQ)
(OTCQB: HPQFF) (FRA: O08), a technology company
specializing in green engineering of silica and silicon material
production, is pleased to announce the acquisition of new battery
testing equipment by its France-based affiliate, NOVACIUM SAS
("Novacium").
The new battery test bench, a TOB-BTS-5V6A analyzer, was
recently received, installed, and operationalized in Novacium’s
laboratory in Solaize (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, France). This
acquisition enhances Novacium’s laboratory-scale testing
capabilities, enabling comprehensive analyses of Lithium batteries
in various formats, including button up to 21700 cylindrical
batteries.
“We are thrilled about the potential of this new capacity,” said
Dr. Jed Kraiem, Ph.D., COO of Novacium. “It will speed up our
testing processes and allow us to obtain critical information more
efficiently. It’ll also enable us to benchmark our materials
against other commercially available batteries, reducing the costs
associated with external validation."

TOB-BTS-5V6A Battery Analyzer. This
state-of-the-art 8-channel analyzer, equipped with a climate
chamber, enables comprehensive testing of polymer and cylindrical
batteries. Key features include precise battery capacity
measurement, detailed charge-discharge profiling, and advanced data
visualization for accurate performance evaluation.
ADVANCED TESTING SYSTEM PROVIDES ENHANCED
EFFICIENCY
The TOB-BTS-5V6A is an 8-channel battery analyzer designed for
polymer and cylindrical batteries ranging from 12 mA to 6000 mA and
up to 15V. Equipped with a climate chamber, it enables accurate
battery capacity measurement, detailed charge-discharge profiling,
extended cycle performance evaluation, C-rate and fast charge
analyses, internal resistance measurement, and anode material
characterization. The system features eight independently
programmable channels, offering high precision and accuracy with a
voltage range of 10 mV-5 V for charge and 2.5 V-5 V for discharge.
Integrated software supports various operating modes, real-time
monitoring, data visualization, and automated reporting. A robust
data protection feature ensures test continuity and data integrity
after power interruptions.
“Investing in high-precision testing equipment is crucial for
advancing our development of future generations of silicon-based
materials,” said Mr. Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of HPQ
Silicon Inc. and NOVACIUM SAS. “Rapid access to testing results
enables us to optimize our research and development efforts, use
our resources more effectively, and maintain a competitive edge in
the market. Our goal is targeting performance metrics that exceed
current industry standards.”
“We’ve been looking for ways to be self-sufficient in testing
and validating our advanced silicon-based materials, and this
acquisition is a major step towards that,” added Dr. Kraiem.
Clarification
The company refers to the transaction disclosed in its press
release issued on June 5, 2024, relating to the acquisition of
rights in the French company Novacium SAS and confirms that after
the conclusion of this transaction, it will hold a 20% stake in
Novacium SAS.

low-cost (Capex and Opex) manufacturer of Fumed Silica using the
FUMED SILICA REACTOR, a proprietary technology
owned by HPQ being developed for HPQ by PyroGenesis.
2) Becoming a
producer of silicon-based anode materials for battery applications
with the assistance of NOVACIUM SAS.
3) HPQ SILICON
affiliate NOVACIUM SAS is developing a low carbon, chemical based
on demand and high-pressure autonomous hydrogen production
system.
4) Becoming a zero
CO2 low-cost (Capex and Opex) producer of High Purity Silicon (2N+
to 4N) using our PUREVAP™ “Quartz
Reduction Reactors” (QRR), a proprietary technology owned
by HPQ being developed for HPQ by PyroGenesis.
