SorbiForce is a U.S.-based startup developing sustainable, non-metal, and non-flammable batteries made from carbon and agricultural waste. Its technology is designed for safe, high-cycle industrial energy storage and a circular economy.
SorbiForce is a clean energy startup that has developed a sustainable, non-metal battery architecture. The technology utilizes a sorption battery design based on carbon, water, salt, and agricultural waste. By replacing conventional metal-based materials with an ultraporous carbon layer, the system performs charge storage through nanopore-confined electrosorption, avoiding chemical reactions that typically cause thermal runaway. This design enables high cycle durability, non-flammability, and the ability to repurpose components at the end of the battery's lifecycle, supporting a circular energy storage model.
These batteries are engineered for mission-critical infrastructure, including data centers and industrial environments, where safety and power stabilization are required. Because the materials are abundant and the architecture avoids complex extractive supply chains, the company aims to provide a lower-cost, safer, and more environmentally sustainable alternative to traditional lithium-ion systems. SorbiForce has transitioned from research and development to operational field execution, including the assembly and pilot deployment of industrial-scale battery units in the United States.
