NOVEMBER 17, 2016

The purpose of this topic is to identify proof-of-concept or seedling projects that will complement the research in the Battery500 Program. The objective of the VTO Battery500 Program is to research, develop, and demonstrate lithium battery technologies capable of achieving a cell specific energy of ≥500 Wh/kg while achieving 1,000 cycles.

This topic seeks proof-of-concept, or seedling projects that complement the VTO Battery500 Consortium’s research to more than double the specific energy (to 500 watt-hours per kilogram) of lithium battery technologies which will result in smaller, lighter weight, less expensive battery packs, and more affordable electric vehicles.

Charged EVs

JANUARY 18, 2023

If EVs are truly to provide a greener alternative to legacy vehicles, then mining and industrial processes need to be held to the strictest environmental standards, and supply chains need to be kept short to minimize transport emissions. Sustainability is another issue driving the increasing importance of traceability in our industry.
