What is battery research?

Battery research occurs throughout the value chain of battery development. It can be oriented toward battery cells, based on competences in chemistry, physics, materials science, modelling, characterization, etc. It can also be oriented toward systems where the battery cells are integrated into packs, to be used in different applications.

How is a battery developed?

At the first stage of development, a potential battery component has been identified and selected for development. It can be identified from existing research, processes such as software simulation, or simply an idea to be tested.

What is battery technology?

Battery technology is one of the key technologies of electric vehicle (EV) development, which the advancement and maturity influence the industrialization of EVs directly.

How important is experimental characterization of battery materials and interfaces?

Experimental characterization of materials and interfaces at large-scale research facilities, such as synchrotron and neutron scattering facilities, plays a critical role in ensuring sufficient acquisition of high-fidelity data describing battery materials and interfaces.

What is a battery Component readiness level (BC-RL)?

This manuscript thus provides a detailed framework for one pillar of the battery technology infrastructure: that of battery cell components. The Battery Component Readiness Level (BC-RL) scale has been developed to enable clear and accurate communication between personnel of various backgrounds.

What are the components of a battery cell?

A battery cell consists of several primary components: a positive electrode (cathode), a negative electrode (anode), a separator, and an electrolyte. These components are created using materials. The battery cell value chain thus proceeds according to three primary stages: material, component, and cell.
