The University of Houston (UH) will develop a battery using a novel water-based, lithium-ion chemistry that makes use of sustainable, low-cost, high-energy, organic materials. Current water-based batteries have greater volume and weight compared to lithium-ion batteries, making them unsuitable for use in electric vehicles. EnZinc Inc.

As a matter of fact, no other manufacturer offers a comparable range of electrified vehicles and solutions in the field of electric mobility. All the mentioned types of powertrains—gasoline, diesel, plug-in-hybrids, batteries or hydrogen—have their justification and chances. We will invest 14.5 billion euro.

Second, because the Department neither manufactures nor sells commercial-scale energy technologies, our work must be relevant to the private sector, which is the agent of deployment. DOE’s goal is to reduce battery costs through a combination of better materials, optimized battery designs, and improved manufacturing.

To overtake lithium technology, Influit will have to convince someone with extremely deep pockets to help it scale up—perhaps from its own logistics supply chain or from EV manufacturers. News arrives nearly daily of yet another lithium-ion advance. An Influit Energy technician assembles stacks of battery cells.
