Aug 6 2010

The Batteries for Advanced Transportation Technologies (BATT) Program has announced the funding of eight R&D projects on lithium battery anodes.

BATT is funded by the Department of Energy’s Office of Vehicle Technologies and is managed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory as part of its Carbon Cycle 2.0 initiative.

The FY 2010 BATT Request for Proposals on the “Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Anode Materials and Structures for Use in Lithium Batteries” has resulted in new projects that can help accelerate the application of such batteries in plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles. These projects focus on developing next-generation anodes to increase the energy and decrease the cost of lithium batteries while maintaining safety and cycle life.

The awardees include two national laboratories, five universities, and one private non-profit research institute and are listed below, along with a brief description of their projects. The total requested funds are $8.54 million over four years.
