Development of the next generation battery storage system for smart grid. This project aims to significantly improve the energy density, safety and robust storage performance of lithium batteries with reduced cost, by developing a next-generation battery with lithium-rich layered oxide cathodes and titanium oxide-based and silicon-based anodes. Intelligent features will make the whole energy network a next-generation battery storage system, with mechanisms to protect the battery from hazardous and inefficient operating conditions. This lithium ion battery storage system is expected to create opportunities for businesses that harvest renewable energy and make existing industries more environmentally benign.Read moreRead less
