U.S. Department of Energy Electric Vehicle Battery Research Pathways and Key Results
Brian Cunningham, Engineer, Vehicle Technologies Office, Energy Storage R&D, U.S. Department of Energy
The U.S. Department of Energy set key technical targets necessary to enable Electric Vehicles (EV) to be as affordable as gasoline vehicles by 2022. A focus of this effort is the development of more cost-effective, longer lasting, and more abuse-tolerant EV batteries. VTO’s battery R&D effort includes multiple activities, ranging from battery materials research to battery cell and pack development and testing. This paper will highlight the current battery R&D pathwayssupported by VTO and key technical results from 2016.
