The global market of Li-ion batteries, valued at $24B (USD) in 2015, is expected to grow at a compounded average rate of 16% to about $60B (USD) in 2022 because of accelerated demand for energy storage in a variety of sectors such as portable, automotive, and small to mid-size electric grid applications. The principle technology pull is through commercialization of electric vehicles, governmental mandates on fuel economy and lowering of greenhouse gas emissions, and the growing demand for consumer electronics. In parallel with this market growth, research and development on these batteries, is also accelerating because further improvements in energy/power density, enhancement of cycling performance, and cost reduction are necessary for a wider use of Li-ion battery technologies. E-One Moli Energy in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada was the first North American high volume manufacturer of rechargeable Li-ion batteries, before converting to an R&D center in 2009. The University of British Columbia, in collaboration with E-One Moli Energy researchers, will conduct research on two important technical challenges that are faced by some of the existing E-One Moli products, and also undertake new directions with respect to development of higher energy density Li-ion batteries which are required for future generations of high energy Li-ion batteries. There are also significant opportunities during this project for training highly qualified personnel and development of intellectual property which will greatly contribute to the Canadian battery industry and economy.

全球锂离子电池市场在2015年价值240亿美元，预计到2022年将以16%的复合平均速度增长至约600亿美元，因为便携式，汽车和中小型电网应用等各种行业对储能的需求加速。主要的技术拉动是通过电动汽车的商业化，政府对燃油经济性和降低温室气体排放的要求，以及对消费电子产品不断增长的需求。与此市场增长同时，这些电池的研究和开发也在加速，因为进一步提高能量/功率密度，增强循环性能和降低成本对于更广泛地使用锂离子电池技术是必要的。 E-One Moli Energy位于加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省的枫树岭，是北美第一家大批量生产可充电锂离子电池的制造商，2009年转为研发中心。不列颠哥伦比亚省大学与E-One Moli Energy研究人员合作，将对现有E-One Moli产品面临的两个重要技术挑战进行研究，并在未来几代高能锂离子电池所需的更高能量密度锂离子电池的开发方面进行新的方向。在该项目期间，也有培训高素质人才和开发知识产权的重要机会，这将大大有助于加拿大电池工业和经济。
