Research and test projects of various sizes are envisaged, with not only large industrial companies but also small and medium-sized enterprises set to benefit. Due to the severe budget cuts at the turn of the year, it was initially unclear to what extent battery research in Germany would continue to be funded.
Due to the severe budget cuts at the turn of the year, it was initially unclear to what extent battery research in Germany would continue to be funded. The budget was indeed slashed, but ultimately to a lesser extent than initially communicated.
We take a closer look. Solid-state batteries are considered the holy grail in the battery world, with more capacity than current lithium-ion batteries. Will a German start-up be the first to mass produce them? We take a closer look.
However, according to Kamper, there is a consensus in the industry that the solid-state battery is an “enabler technology” that could enable the use of lithium-metal-based anodes, for example, in order to achieve a particularly high energy density.
According to the website Flash Battery Tech, the latest studies on solid state batteries show that they have an energy density 2-2.5 times higher than current lithium-ion technology. This would deliver a lighter and smaller battery capable of enabling greater range and lighter weight.
