Abstract: This SBIR Phase I proposal from Technology Holding LLC seeks to develop an advanced energy storage system to integrate with renewable energy systems. The high energy density can be achieved by using lithium anode and thermally stable cathode materials. Solid electrolytes are expected to be far less reactive with any cathode material compared to liquid, organic electrolytes. Research in Phase I will prepare electrolyte constituents and determine preliminary small cell performance of Li-ion cells. Phase II of the research will focus on larger battery capacitors.
Benefits: Assuming success, the advanced battery to be developed in this program will deliver more than 500 Wh/L. This proposed battery technology makes it possible to exceed the targets of the specific energy and cycle life. The improved conductivity of the solid electrolyte will enable the usage of this electrolyte to dramatically improve battery safety and thereby expand the usage of the battery to other applications.
