The result could greatly improve the safety of next-generation, high energy density batteries. Lithium metal, having a high theoretical specific capacity of 3,860 mAh g -1 and the most negative electrochemical potential among anode materials, has been considered an ideal anode in lithium battery systems over the past four decades.

ARPA-E’s first solicitation awarded $151 million to 37 projects aimed at transformational innovations in energy storage, biofuels, carbon capture, renewable power, building efficiency, vehicles, and other areas. This process is less than 1% efficient at converting sunlight to stored chemical energy. Earlier post.)

The agreement enables Saft to add the new supercapacitor technology to its portfolio of leading edge battery technologies. By providing effective and reliable starting power for large diesel engines at low temperatures or in frequent stop-start usage the supercapacitors will allow the vehicle battery to be optimized for the application.

ARPA-E’s first funding opportunity, “OPEN 2009,” was issued three years ago and was similarly an open call for transformational energy technology solutions. economical to store or transport. Such natural gas contains energy. Capturing this energy would reduce both waste. regenerated in a reactor, similar to a battery.
