DEVELOPMENT OF EARTH ABUNDANT MATERIAL-BASED/LOW-COST BATTERIES FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE (EV) APPLICATIONS
The research and development activities funded under this RFPI are intended to support technological advancements that meet or exceed USABC’s commercialization targets for battery cells used in electric vehicles (EV), with a focus on technologies that utilize low-cost or earth-abundant materials. The proposed development should prioritize the reduction or total elimination of one or more critical materials as defined by the DOE, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, or graphite.
