Events and Proposal

Upcoming Events:

The kWh Battery Challenge for Electric Vehicles and Energy Storage: A Perspective from Battery500 Consortium
Presented by Dr. Jun Liu
Monday, February 27, 2023 | 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. (PT)
Register for Zoom Webinar

Join us for this seminar where Dr. Jun Liu will discuss the research needs for electric vehicles and energy storage. He will provide an overview of the Battery500 Consortium, including its history, current work, and future efforts. Lastly, he will address the scientific challenges to increase today’s battery technology capacity to up to 500 Wh kg-1 to achieve 1,000 charge/discharge cycles, and reduce the cost of cells significantly to less than $100 kWh-1.

Batt500 Seminar Series - February
This seminar series is organized and sponsored by Battery500 Consortium, a multi-institute program supported by the Department of Energy to accelerate development and manufacturing of next-generation batteries for electrical vehicles.
