The aim of the project is to raise the energy density of lithium-ion cells to about 250 Wh/kg. This could increase the range of compact electric cars to 250 to 300 kilometers (155 to 186 miles); or, conversely, reduce the pack size, weight and cost for lower range solutions. Bosch is the project lead.
