Charging ahead: Europe’s quest to become a top global battery producer probed by EU auditors

The European Court of Auditors is launching an audit to find out whether the European Commission has been effective in developing a globally competitive and sustainable value chain for batteries in the EU and whether the projects supported in the Member States maximised the impact of EU funding. The audit comes against the backdrop of Read more about Charging ahead: Europe’s quest to become a top global battery producer probed by EU auditors[…]

Researchers approached the creation of a solid-state thin-film battery for miniature devices and sensors

Researchers of Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) approached the creation of a solid-state thin-film battery for miniature devices and sensors. The results of the study were published in the special issue dedicated to improved materials for lithium and sodium-ion batteries (Energies Journal, MDPI Publishing House). The development of miniature devices such as biosensors, smartwatches, Internet of things (IoT) Read more about Researchers approached the creation of a solid-state thin-film battery for miniature devices and sensors[…]

Research and innovation for advanced Li-ion cells

Specific Challenge: The high growth rate of electrified vehicles (xEV) with substantial unit forecasts is driving the demand for electrochemical battery cells. To achieve a significant market share for European suppliers, global competitiveness for xEV batteries has to be achieved. For the future it is important that European industry and research have the system knowledge Read more about Research and innovation for advanced Li-ion cells[…]
