據今日油價網站3月23日消息 德國太陽能和氫研究中心（ZSW）的研究人員啟動了ZellkoBatt項目，該項目旨在優化用于汽車應用的大尺寸鋰離子電池，同時降低組件和制造工藝的成本。

在一份新聞稿中，科學家們表示，他們將把研究成果應用到ZSW的中試生產線上。該研究實驗室自2014年以來一直在類似工廠的條件下運行，由此產生的機器和工藝將被提升至大規模生產。

該想法是在國內工廠的工作原型和工業大規模制造之間建立橋梁。

ZSW蓄電池研究主管Margret Wohlfahrt-Mehrens在一份聲明中說：“電動汽車將顯著改變汽車供應商行業。我們必須盡我們所能，快速跟蹤電池系統的開發和生產，使德國成為一個經得起未來考驗的汽車制造國。通過ZellkoBatt項目，我們正在擴展我們的技術基礎設施，以加快創新電池向工業大規模制造的轉移。”

據Wohlfahrt-Mehrens稱，該項目將幫助德國超越試點生產線和小型生產線，建立生產能力，滿足不斷增長的電池需求，尤其是考慮到政府已制定了到2030年將電動車數量增加到1000萬輛的目標。

Germany's Big Plans For Lithium Battery Dominance

Researchers from Germany’s Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg, known by its initials ZSW, just launched the ZellkoBatt, a project aimed at optimizing large-format lithium-ion cells for automotive applications, while cutting the costs of components as well as manufacturing processes.

In a press release, the scientists said they will apply the results of their efforts to ZSW’s pilot production line, a research lab that has been up and running since 2014 under factory-like conditions. The resultant machines and processes will then be ramped up for mass manufacturing.

The idea is to build bridges between working prototypes and industrial mass manufacturing in domestic factories.

“Electric mobility is going to significantly change the automotive supplier industry,” Margret Wohlfahrt-Mehrens, who heads accumulator research at ZSW, said in a statement. “We have to do everything in our power to fast-track the development and production of battery systems to future-proof Germany as an auto-making nation. With the ZellkoBatt project, we are extending our technological infrastructure to accelerate the transfer of innovative battery cells to industrial mass manufacturing.”

According to Wohlfahrt-Mehrens, the project should help the country move beyond pilot manufacturing lines and small production runs, establish manufacturing capacity and meet the growing demand for batteries, particularly taking into account that the government has set the goal of increasing the electric vehicle count to up to 10 million by 2030.
