The Victorian Government’s Made in Victoria Energy Technologies Manufacturing program has selected EnyGy to receive crucial funding to pave the way for the Monash University spinout to expand its graphene materials production facility in Melbourne.
EnyGy specialises in graphene electrode films, a key component in ultracapacitors for high-performance energy storage applications.
Ultracapacitors are increasingly used in diverse applications, including industrial systems, IoT devices, smart grids, data storage, and large-scale grid and industrial solutions.
The funding will enable EnyGy to invest in state-of-the-art equipment critical to the graphene production process. These enhancements are pivotal in scaling up manufacturing capacity to meet the growing demand for EnyGy’s proprietary graphene electrode films.
EnyGy’s expansion in Melbourne will boost local manufacturing, retain skilled jobs, and enhance Australia’s ability to supply cutting-edge technology components to global markets.
“This funding is transformative for EnyGy’s journey. It underscores the Victorian Government’s commitment to advancing manufacturing excellence in the state. With this support, we are scaling up graphene materials production right here in Melbourne, investing in advanced manufacturing technology to meet increasing global demand,” said EnyGy CEO Mr. Wiehann de Klerk.
Graphene is central to ultracapacitor performance, enabling rapid energy storage and discharge, increases in energy storage capacity, all while maintaining a long operational life.
