A lithium-sulfur cell. Sion Power Corporation has received a three-year, $800,000 research grant from the US Department of Energy (DOE) to support Sion’s ongoing work to develop a new class of electrolytes used in lithium sulfur (Li-S) batteries for electric vehicle (EV) applications. Lithium-sulfur batteries.

Sion Power’s proprietary lithium sulfur (Li-S) batteries ( earlier post ) played a critical role in the QinetiQ Zephyr smashing the world record for the longest duration unmanned flight. The battery utilized Sion’s unique, high specific energy Li-S cells which provide 350 Wh/kg, the highest available for a rechargeable battery.

Topics include improved anode materials, improved mechanisms for safety and management, electrode manufacturing, and lithium-sulfur chemistry. These projects were selected under the battery materials and manufacturing topic area from the Vehicle Technologies Program Wide Funding Opportunity Announcement released early in 2008.
