Hybrid metrology for sustainable and low-carbon footprint battery materials
Electrosciences is delighted to announce that we are participating in a consortium on a joint research project in Metrology to explore ways of improving the environmental and economic sustainability of the battery industry. The project with support the transition away from Li-ion (LIB) batteries, which rely on scarce elements, to more sustainable battery chemistries, manufacturing and re-cycling processes.
The project – GRDO9 HyMetBat – aims:
- To develop a hybrid metrology platform comprising analytical methods to measure the (electro)chemical, structural and thermal properties of sustainable and low carbon footprint battery materials.
- To develop new metrology approaches and procedures to support recycling of battery materials.
- To develop new instrumentation and traceable methodologies for coupled hybrid-operando characterisation of emerging sustainable battery materials.
- Create modelling and computational tools enabled by hybrid metrology.
- Facilitate the take-up of the metrology infrastructure developed.
