What this shows Ilika's Innovation Score is 52.7/100 (top 10% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ilika?

Each dot is one of Ilika’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Ilika’s own 20.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ilika's grants concentrate

Ilika Technologies Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 15 CPC subclasses with 94.7% of grants classified under Y02E (Reduction OF Greenhouse GAS [GHG] Emissions, Related TO Energy Generation, Transmission OR Distribution). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Ilika sits between ITI Scotland Limited and InductEV Inc..

Ilika's three-year grant acceleration

Ilika Technologies Ltd shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
