Designed for the extreme thermal ranges of the Atacama Desert and the Southern Andes.
Chile stands as a global leader in the energy transition, not just as a top copper and lithium producer, but as an aggressive adopter of green technologies. In the current Chilean commercial landscape, industries ranging from Antofagasta’s massive mining complexes to Valparaíso’s logistics hubs are seeking alternatives to traditional lead-acid batteries. The harsh environmental variables—high altitude, extreme ultraviolet exposure in the north, and sub-zero temperatures in the south—demand a battery technology that is more resilient than standard Lithium-ion (LiFePO4).
Sodium-ion (Na-ion) start batteries are emerging as the preferred choice for heavy-duty starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) applications. Unlike lithium, sodium is abundant and cheaper, and the chemistry remains stable in temperatures where lithium batteries might require expensive heating systems.
Certified to meet international safety and transportation standards including CE, UL, and UN38.3.
Leveraging 16 years of expertise to innovate in Sodium-ion and LiFePO4 structures.
Full customization for Chile's specific industrial voltage and capacity requirements.
Global procurement managers are increasingly diversifying their supply chains. The volatility of lithium prices has made Sodium-ion a strategic hedge. For companies operating in Chile, this means securing a supply chain that is not just reliable but also future-proof. Lithmate provides a macro-industrial solution by integrating BMS (Battery Management Systems) that are specifically tuned for high-vibration environments typical of Chilean mining routes.
Our approach goes beyond selling a battery; we provide a localized energy ecosystem:
We understand the importance of SEC (Superintendencia de Electricidad y Combustibles) standards and the environmental regulations set by the Ministry of Energy. All our exports to the Chile market undergo rigorous testing to ensure compliance with local electrical safety and waste management (REP Law) protocols. Lithmate provides comprehensive documentation in Spanish and English to facilitate smooth customs clearance and local certification.
The next five years will see Sodium-ion energy density rivaling early-stage LiFePO4, making it even more viable for long-range transport. Our R&D is currently focusing on "Solid-state Sodium" designs which will offer even higher safety profiles for the underground mining sectors in Codelco’s operations. By partnering with us, Chilean companies gain early access to these technological milestones.
Sodium-ion batteries are less sensitive to atmospheric pressure changes than lead-acid batteries. Our sealed designs prevent electrolyte leakage and maintain consistent internal pressure, ensuring reliable performance at altitudes above 4,000 meters.
Yes. Our 12V series is designed as a "drop-in replacement." They share similar form factors (DIN/JIS standards) but offer 3x the lifespan and significantly lower weight, reducing fuel consumption for your fleet.
We typically offer a 3-4 week manufacturing lead time, followed by sea freight to major ports like San Antonio or Valparaíso. We also offer air-freight options for urgent mining shutdowns.
