In order to develop future batteries, partners from science and industry from all over Europe have launched the Battery 2030+ research initiative. A roadmap specifies the milestones: a platform for material development using artificial intelligence, networked sensors and self-healing technology for batteries as well as sustainable manufacturing and recycling processes.

Changes towards a climate-neutral society require fundamental transformations in the way we generate, use and store energy. The European research initiative Battery 2030+ aims at high-performance battery storage that is sustainable, safe and inexpensive at the same time. The participating research institutions and companies have now published a roadmap that defines both the properties of future batteries and measures to accelerate development. Three main research areas are identified: "We want to speed up the search for new materials and the right material mix, get new functions on the way and establish manufacturing and recycling concepts," says Professor Maximilian Fichtner, Deputy Director at the Helmholtz Institute Ulm and spokesman for the Center for Electrochemical Energy Storage Ulm-Karlsruhe (CELEST). "With Battery 2030+ we are now bringing together expertise in the respective sub-areas across Europe and working in a coordinated manner. This gives us the opportunity to be at the forefront of battery development worldwide, also in competition with the United States and Asia."

Accelerated material development with artificial intelligence


In order to learn how certain materials behave and how they have to be handled in order to produce certain properties, Battery 2030+ has to build a globally unique high-throughput system (MAP, Materials Acceleration Platform). The combination of automated synthesis, characterization and material modeling as well as data mining techniques and artificial intelligence in test evaluation and planning should significantly accelerate the development of new battery materials. Building on this common platform, Battery 2030+ will start analyzing the properties of material interfaces, such as the interface between the electrode and electrolyte or between active material and various additives. This “interface genome” (BIG, Battery Interface Genome) is intended to help researchers develop promising approaches for new, high-performance batteries. The first projects from the roadmap for Battery 2030+ have already been approved by the EU and can now start.
