The development of newer and safer battery technologies.
There’s an increasing demand for sustainable energy sources like solar and wind energy. It’s important that we can store this energy efficiently and deliver it when needed. Therefore, the development of new, safer, and more efficient battery technologies is crucial for the energy transition. This project focuses on developing the next generation of batteries with higher energy densities, longer lifespan, and much better safety than current ones.
The BatteryNL project brings together Dutch SMEs, multinationals, and knowledge institutions to gain more insight into how batteries work. The electrode-electrolyte interface is being researched and improved with scalable technologies. The project is divided into eight work packages, which include work on:
Together with stakeholders, we also evaluate the social and economic impact. This ensures that technological breakthroughs can be implemented in society. This collaboration, consisting of 36 partners, thereby creates a crucial, central role for Dutch parties in the development of future battery technology worldwide.
