Energy storage now is very strategic, not only for Argonne, but for the country," Amine said. "Whoever develops the technology will become the Saudi Arabia of batteries, so obviously it's very critical to get the technologies."

Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Argonne received $8.8 million to build new labs to design battery components, test them, scale up their production, build prototypes, run them through tests and analyze them.said Ira Bloom,
Well we know he is familiar with it now and is a a collaborator over a year ago....new is due to come out maybe with the company year end in Sept...

Daimler also announced new battery factories to support its electric vehicle production. They recently inaugurated a new plant in Germany and they announced a new $740 million battery factory in China for Mercedes-Benz’s EVs.

Since announcing its plan to build 2 to 3 million electric cars a year and to unveil 30 new models by 2025 – across all its brands (VW, Audi, Porsche, etc.), Volkswagen has been rumored to be planning to build one or more giant battery factory to support this plan.

But the German automaker has yet to confirm any plan to build one, though they now admitted seeing a need for 40 Gigafactory-size battery factories for electric vehicles by 2025.


Ulrich Eichhorn, head of r&d for VW, made the comment to reporters on June 30 during a presentation – via Auto News Europe.

The executive estimates that the Volkswagen group alone would need 200 GWh of battery cell production by 2025 and his reference to 40 Tesla Gigafactories was for the entire auto industry assuming that all other automakers are also targeting 25% of their production to be electric vehicles on average by then.
