Carbon Fiber

Green Car Congress

FEBRUARY 5, 2010

Researchers from Imperial College London and their European partners, including Volvo Car Corporation, are developing a prototype multifunctional structural composite material composed of carbon fibers and a polymer resin which can store and discharge electrical energy and which is also strong and lightweight enough to be used for car parts.

Energy Storage

Green Car Congress

DECEMBER 17, 2018

lithium-sulfur (Li-S) and lithium selenium (Li-Se) systems— are promising candidates for high energy electrical storage solution. A corresponding chalcogen cathode structure, which is composed of a chalcogen element (S or Se), a conductive framework, and a polymer binder, is well-accepted for most studies.

The objective of the project is to develop a high power and high energy electrical storage system that combines the strengths of each technology—high power density for ultracapacitors and high energy storage for Li-ion batteries—at equal or better system efficiency and net cost/density compared to current conventional Li-ion batteries.

EVE, which is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, is a supplier of EV and electricity storage system (ESS) batteries in China. The first prototypes will be available for testing later this year, with a plan for mass production via traditional certified lithium-ion battery manufacturing lines in 2024.
