Solid-State-Batteries

The solid-state battery is the great hope of the automotive industry. By using a solid electrolyte and a lithium metal anode, the energy density should be further increased without compromising the safety of the battery. VARTA is focusing on solid-state batteries with cylindrical cell formats.



„Our goal is to enable the use of next-generation batteries with increasingly higher performance requirements without any concern.“

Simon Burkhardt, Development Engineer Lithium, VARTA AG

 

Research projects

SolidS
The project, which is supported by the German government, focuses on the development of a new type of cathode for lithium-sulphur batteries with increased safety, energy density, efficiency and cycle stability.
ELIC
The project deals with the development of lithium solid-state coin cells with high energy and durability.
ALANO
A team from research and industry is working on the development of solid-state batteries. The focus is on lithium metal as anode material.
