ITEN is developing solid-state batteries specifically engineered for Class III implantable medical devices through the EU-backed SOLIMED programme, targeting 600 Wh/L energy density, fast wireless recharging in under 20 minutes, and extended operating life to reduce surgical replacement procedures.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Digital Health.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
If you're building implantable devices, your battery supplier just became a critical dependency and a potential blocker - ITEN's 20-minute wireless recharge window and 600 Wh/L density are now the performance bar you'll need to hit or match, and EU-backed funding means this is moving fast.
