Lithium-Ion Batteries: Types, Safety, Performance
What is a Lithium-Ion Battery and How Does it Work? Explore lithium-ion battery types, how they work, cell formats, safety advancements,
Batteries Europe is the platform bringing together all relevant stakeholders in the European batteries research and innovation ecosystem in order to develop and support a competitive battery value chain in Europe.
The EU-funded MeBattery project aims to lay the foundations of a next-generation battery technology that will potentially help overcome the critical limitations of established flow and static battery systems in energy storage. The proposed battery technology will leverage the intrinsic benefits of a redox flow battery system.
Li-ion batteries play a crucial role in Europe's energy transition, yet production dominance lies with China, Korea, and Japan. To counter this dependency, Europe plans to establish 25 new gigafactories amounting to EUR 35 billion by 2030. However, defects are anticipated to occur at rates ranging from 15 % to 30 % during the initial ramp-up phase.
However, the current Battery Management System (BMS) used in Flexible Lithium-ion Batteries (FLBs) lacks interoperability features, leading to a time-consuming, expensive, and non-standardised reconfiguration process for Small Li-Ion Rechargeable Batteries (SLBs).
The EU aims to become an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, achieving climate neutrality by 2050. Batteries will enable this clean energy transition by helping to decarbonise transport and enabling a higher uptake of renewable energy technologies.
The core objective of NEXTBMS is to achieve a best-in-class advanced BMS hard- and software solution concerning technical performance, adaptiveness, and cost, for first life perspective as well as end-of-life (second life) management. TO1: Develop Advanced physics-based and adaptable battery models.
