In an effort to realize ‘carbon neutrality’, advanced battery technologies are being developed and explored across Europe. TNO at Holst Centre in Eindhoven works with a range of thin-film technologies that have very interesting potential in the fast-growing domain of Energy Storage. Devices that are being developed include next-generation batteries aimed at being intrinsically safe, having higher capacity, and faster charging times compared to the current state-of-the-art batteries on the market.
Our technical focus in the battery domain includes testing lithium and sodium-ion batteries, improving scalable production techniques of battery components, exploring materials related to emerging battery concepts such as all-solid-state and metal-air batteries, and improving the performance of existing battery materials leveraging our in-house thin-film deposition techniques. Durability and scalability of battery components are high on the agenda.
