Advanced materials for batteries (MAT4BAT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

"Li-ion technologies initiated in the 90’ at a fast development pace thanks mainly to emerging ICTs with more than 20 GWh sold in 2010. Soon, it appeared as a credible technology for electrical vehicles as it could provide average energy densities of about 140 Wh/kg. However and since then,major breakthroughs have been expected to reach higher storage levels of 250 Wh/kg on battery system level wi ...

Automotive Fuel Cell Stack Cluster Initiative for Europe (Auto-Stack)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

While the supply base for materials and components in Europe is well advanced and competitive, stack integration is lagging behind due to massive investment requirements and risks associated with commercialization. The project aims to develop approaches to address the critical barriers for substantial improvement of collaboration between major stakeholders and establishing a solid business model f ...
