Nanostructured materials for development of advanced lithium energy storage system

Funding: 2006: $10,000
2007: $10,000

Project Member(s): Wang, G.

Funding or Partner Organisation: Australian Research Council (ARC Linkage International)

Start year: 2006

Summary: This project is expected to bring several national benefits. Novel nanostructured electro active materials and high energy density rechargeable lithium batteries will be developed. The application of advanced lithium batteries as power sources for electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) will realise nearly zero emission transportation. The widespread usage of EVs and HEVs could significantly reduce air pollution, improve urban environment and increase national energy security and energy independence
