Is there an imbalance in the world's lithium-ion battery production?

In a combined announcement, the EC and BEPA acknowledged the imbalance in the world’s lithium-ion battery production. Europe currently manufactures less than 1% of all global batteries, compared to more than 90% in Asia. Addressing this will be among the project’s main goals.

Are Bonaire and Sint-Eustatius honoured?

Late last week, the good news was received that the project proposals of Bonaire, Sint-Eustatius and Saba were honoured. They are the only islands in the Caribbean whose proposals made it through the selection.

Can Europe reinvent the way we invent the batteries of the future?

A long-term research roadmap for Europe to reinventing the way we invent the batteries of the future. High throughput experiments and modeling are suggested to accelerate the finding of new battery materials and concepts and to better understand interfaces in batteries.

What is battery 2030+?

Battery 2030+ This Special Issue provides an overview of the scientific ambition for the European roadmap for future battery technologies “Battery 2030+”. It includes both the roadmap itself with its long term perspective as well as state of the art descriptions and deep-dive articles outlining key themes of the roadmap.

How can simulation software be used in the battery 2030+ project?

The incorporation of complex simulation software into workflows for virtual material screening and design within the BATTERY 2030+ project provides the framework for the discovery of new battery materials.

Why do we need a machine readable language for battery research?

The field of battery research is experiencing unprecedented growth and generating vast quantities of data. Although this data could be invaluable for scientific reproducibility and artificial intelligence workflows, its re-use is hindered by the lack of a machine-readable language for annotating the data.
