About the company
Lyten, Inc. is a for-profit small business headquartered in San Jose, California, specializing in advanced battery technology and materials science research. The company focuses primarily on developing innovative lithium-sulfur battery technologies, metamaterials, and advanced sensor technologies for government agencies, with a particular emphasis on defense and energy applications. Registered in SAM.gov since 2014, Lyten has established itself as a key innovator in battery chemistry, graphene-based technologies, and next-generation energy solutions for military and civilian sectors.
Through federal contract awards, Lyten has consistently provided advanced research and development services across multiple defense agencies. The company has secured significant contracts with the Air Force Research Laboratory, Office of Naval Research, and Department of Homeland Security, focusing on developing next-generation lithium-sulfur batteries, metamaterials, and specialized battery technologies. These contracts, ranging from $50,000 to $4,430,000, have been primarily structured as Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I and Phase II awards, with some contracts designated as total small business set-asides. The work has encompassed critical research areas such as improving battery cycle life, developing high-energy battery systems for space and electric vehicle applications, and creating advanced battery cell components with enhanced performance characteristics.
Regarding federal grant awards, Lyten has received significant funding from the Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. The most notable grant is a $5,590,448 Cooperative Agreement aimed at developing long-life lithium-sulfur battery cells with advanced sulfur cathodes using 3-dimensional graphene-sulfur composites. The grant's primary objective is to create battery systems capable of supporting over 1,000 charge cycles at 80% depth of discharge, with specific energy exceeding 250 Wh/kg, targeted for electric vehicles and heavy-duty electric trucks utilizing a North American supply chain.
Lyten has also established a federal contract Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) with the Office of the Secretary of Defense, valued at $5,197,731. This OTA, awarded on June 8, 2020, provides a framework for efficient procurement of Lyten's battery technologies through potential follow-on task orders. The agreement allows the Defense Department to access Lyten's innovative battery prototypes and production capabilities, with no specific set-aside designation. This IDV represents a strategic mechanism for the Department of Defense to engage with Lyten's cutting-edge battery and materials technology development.
