7.5 million euros for a new lithium-ion cell
Nine German companies and research institutions are jointly developing a new lithium-ion cell. The aim is to accelerate the widespread electrification through battery cells with improved properties. The innovative cell is intended to be high-capacity, yet fast-charging and cost-effective. In addition, the further development of environmentally friendly and efficient manufacturing processes is the focus of the "HEADLINE" research project. EAS Batteries is coordinating the project. It has a total volume of 7.5 million euros and is funded by the “Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung” (BMBF).
"HEADLINE": Know-how transfer along the entire value chain
Innovative materials, processes, tools, simulation methods and measurement technology are used in the development of the HEADLINE cell and its climate-friendly production. This is achieved through the transfer of know-how within the broad-based project consortium. It covers the entire value chain from the development of materials to cell production. For example, the researchers are combining new highly conductive liquid electrolytes for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and for lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide (NCM) with an efficient, environmentally friendly, non-toxic extrusion process as well as tools for higher coating widths and speeds for significantly more efficient and ecological electrode production. The efficient use of resources is ensured by an innovative inline inspection technology that controls the manufacturing processes by real-time monitoring, makes them more flexible and digitises them in parts.
"Battery 2020": Strong partners for Germany as an industrial location
The results of the HEADLINE project (03XP0394A-I) are being utilised and implemented by five participating small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In this way, the research project supports Germany as a business location. It is part of the measure "Batterie 2020 Transfer – Batteriematerialien für zukünftige elektromobile, stationäre und weitere industrierelevante Anwendungen". The project runs for three years and ends on 30 June 2024. The research consortium consists of the following partners:
Brabender GmbH & Co. KG
ECT-Kema GmbH
Asahi Kasei Europe GmbH
Daikin Chemical Europe GmbH
IfU Diagnostic Systems GmbH
SURAGUS GmbH
IANUS Simulation GmbH
Fraunhofer-Institut für Keramische Technologien und Systeme (IKTS)
EAS Batteries GmbH (coordination)
Über die EAS Batteries GmbH
Large-format cylindrical cells, LFP as a safe cell chemistry, energy-saving extrusion and an efficient contacting method are some of the most appealing ideas in a quarter of a century of EAS history. As a highly specialised niche supplier, EAS has been developing innovative cell and battery solutions at its Nordhausen production site for 25 years – including extremely robust and high-performance cells for applications in the aerospace, aviation, automotive, NRMM (Non-Road Mobile Machinery) and maritime industries.
The brand EAS emerged in 2011 from GAIA Akkumulatorenwerke GmbH, founded in 1996 in Nordhausen. Since June 2017 EAS Batteries GmbH is part of the Monbat Group.
