As part of its mission to help\u00a0unlock sustainable mobility<\/strong>, BATTECH, a project led by the\u00a0Catalonia Energy Research Institute (IREC)<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0Eurecat<\/a>\u00a0technology centre, took part in\u00a0The Battery Show Europe<\/strong>. The event, held last week at Messe Stuttgart in Germany, is the leading battery trade fair in Europe and provided a venue for BATTECH to showcase its recent battery research and innovation developments.<\/p>

As the preeminent centre in southern Europe, BATTECH\u00a0covers all battery value chain R&D and innovation<\/strong>\u00a0including the materials making up the cells as key parts of the batteries, their integration in large batteries for electric mobility and also as\u00a0energy systems<\/strong>, factoring in their second life and final recycling. The main purpose of BATTECH\u2019s projects is to improve\u00a0energy density, efficiency, durability and safety while cutting battery costs<\/strong>\u00a0in a sustainability and circular economy approach.<\/p>

At The Battery Show Europe, an event which gathered more than 700 exhibitors and featured an outstanding programme with around a hundred expert speakers, the BATTECH team had the chance to share ideas and developments with the international battery and electric mobility community. Over the three days of the fair, more than a hundred people interested in the projects BATTECH is undertaking and its research, innovation and transfer activities and capabilities in this field visited its booth.<\/p>

This leading European trade fair also enabled BATTECH to unveil its most recent breakthroughs in research and development of technologies which are being rolled out in the various projects the IREC and Eurecat are involved in.<\/p>

The flagship European projects currently led by BATTECH are the COBRA project (coordinated by the IREC with an \u20ac11.8 million budget), which is developing new cobalt-free lithium-ion cell chemistries, and the MARBEL project (coordinated by Eurecat with an \u20ac11.7 million budget), engaged in engineering the new generation of high energy density, modular, weight-optimised battery packs with shorter charging times, greater durability and a design geared towards easier disassembly for a second life and simpler recycling of all their components, some of which come from recycled materials. Other projects in which BATTECH is playing an active role are Free4Lib, XL Connect, Intelligent, Advagen and Spinmate.<\/p>

\u201cAs a project committed to addressing the major challenges of electricity storage, BATTECH is investing significant resources and knowhow in research, development and technology transfer to drive the battery industry ecosystem,\u201d says technology lead Carles Rubio.<\/p>

The team \u201cis working with state-of-the-art technologies for new generations of lithium-ion and sodium-ion solid-state batteries, exploring new materials and upgrading manufacturing processes to achieve better performance and longer battery life while always seeking to be more environmentally friendly,\u201d adds Jordi Jacas, a materials and battery researcher.<\/p>

Moreover, BATTECH \u201cis not only spearheading innovation in new battery materials but also helping to fashion a robust and resilient ecosystem for the electric mobility and energy sector,\u201d notes Agust\u00ed Chico, BATTECH\u2019s chief technology officer. This holistic approach \u201cincludes developing, manufacturing and testing new generation battery packs which are much more efficient and sustainable coupled with training highly qualified professionals in this field.\u201d<\/p>

At the fair, BATTECH \u201chas unveiled some of its most recent developments, including significant advances in improving energy storage capacity and in fast charging and battery safety,\u201d points out Agust\u00ed Chico. These innovations \u201chave the potential to dramatically change today\u2019s electric mobility landscape by delivering more efficient, longer-lasting, safer and more sustainable battery solutions.\u201d<\/p>

Backed by industry and the scientific community, BATTECH \u201cis steadfast in its mission to improve the battery technology of today and tomorrow,\u201d says Carles Rubio. Its participation in The Battery Show Europe \u201csymbolises its commitment to the industry and its determination to continue pushing electric mobility and renewable energy storage to new frontiers of innovation and sustainability.\u201d<\/p>

BATTECH, specialised research, testing and innovation in batteries<\/strong><\/h3>

Set up and supported by the Eurecat technology centre and the Catalonia Energy Research Institute (IREC), BATTECH delivers specialised research, development, testing and innovation in batteries to enhance knowledge transfer to industry in this field. It draws on a circular economy and sustainability approach to cover the entire battery value chain as a flagship R&D and innovation centre.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
