Murata licence widened to battery applications
CAP-XX, a world leader in supercapacitors, is pleased to announcethat its licence agreement with Murata, entered into in May 2008, has been broadened to include battery markets.
At Murata's request, CAP-XX has agreed to extend the scope of the licence which will enable Murata to manufacture and sell lithium ion batteries using CAP-XX's international patents.
The Murata extension highlights the broad scope of the CAP-XX patent portfolio in many different energy storage applications and is anticipated to generate a material uplift in licensing revenue in the coming years. The global lithium ion battery market, which was US$12b in 2012, is expected to exceed US$33b by 2019.
CAP-XX continues to seek additional licensing opportunities for its patents and intellectual property in the fields of supercapacitors, Li-ion batteries and other energy storage applications.
CAP-XX's ChiefExecutive, Anthony Kongats, said:
"The extension of CAP-XX's licence agreement with Murata materially increases the breadth of applications for our family of patents into the already large and rapidly developing battery markets."
