Phase I

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase I year
2015
Phase I Amount
$149,301
A hybrid lithium ion battery / super capacitor energy storage device is developed that uses the high power capability of the super capacitor to satisfy pulsed power load requirements such that stress on the lithium ion batteries is reduced. This results in extended discharge time and higher efficiency utilization of the battery stack.

Phase II

Contract Number: ----------
Start Date: ----    Completed: ----
Phase II year
2017
Phase II Amount
$998,238
A scalable hybrid lithium ion battery / super capacitor energy storage device is developed and the technology is matured such that the system reduces battery cell stress, improves temperature range, and increases effective battery lifetime and safety. This is an enabling technology that allows the use of very high energy batteries in applications that would otherwise be unsuitable for them.
