Amprius and Matternet Revolutionize Drone Delivery with Silicon Anode Batteries

Published on May 19, 2026

Drone delivery has gained momentum, offering rapid logistics solutions in urban environments. Companies like Matternet have led the charge, combining advanced technology with regulatory permissions to operate. Until now, battery performance has limited their range and efficiency.

Amprius Technologies has announced a collaboration with Matternet to tackle this issue. They will provide SiCore® lithium-ion cells, known for their high energy density, for Matternet’s drones. This shift promises to enhance the operational capabilities of these autonomous delivery systems.

The integration of Amprius’s battery technology into Matternet’s drones is expected to significantly extend flight times and payload capacities. This partnership brings together years of innovation from both companies, aiming to redefine logistics in last-mile delivery. The benefits could change customer expectations for speed and reliability.

This collaboration is likely to influence the future of drone logistics. With increased efficiency, businesses can operate at lower costs and serve more customers. As the demand for quicker deliveries rises, Amprius and Matternet are positioned to lead the industry into a new era of aerial transport.
