CoFBat
The CoFBAT project is a research and innovation project (LC-BAT-02-2019) and will develop advanced material solutions for safer and long-lasting high capacity Cobalt free batteries for stationary storage applications.
Uniresearch was hired by the initial consortium to write and compile the grant application. After approval of the project, Uniresearch has been assigned the task of project management facilitator and an active role in the dissemination, exploitation and communication. Uniresearch will be responsible for major external dissemination and communication activities.
The project main goal is to develop next level of battery storage with a modular technology, suitable for different applications and fulfilling the increasing need of decentralised energy production and supply for private households and industrial robotised devices. This will be achieved by using high capacity anodes coupled with cobalt free cathode and with a very safe gel polymer electrolyte separator. This new technology will be developed up to a TRL 6 (large prismatic cell ESP-Cell 30Ah) at the end of the project, producing these novel high voltage high capacity batteries close to practical applications.
The project consortium consists of 19 partners from 8 EU countries.
