Multiscale Coupling of Lithium-Sulphur Battery Compounds from Carbon Pores to Full Cells - CoLi-SCo

Project summary

The targets of the European Green Deal can only be reached if batteries with high specific energy and long lifetime based on abundant sources are brought to market. One promising candidate are lithium-sulphur batteries which were investigated on lab scale in recent years but broad implementation is still not achieved. The Major aim of CoLi-SCo is to support the practical implementation of Li-S batteries. It combines partners covering a range of different expertise, from fundamental research to industrial materials production. The batteries developed will be applicable in various applications such as mobile/stationary energy storage or electric mobility. CoLi-SCo follows a holistic approach and goes beyond investigation of structure-property relationships. Understanding for the interplay of different components in practically relevant lithium-sulphur cells will accelerate implementation of this technology which can positively impact the future quality of life.
