Advanced batteries for electric vehicle and grid energy storage applications

电动汽车和电网储能应用的先进电池这是达尔豪西大学、特斯拉加拿大公司和特斯拉公司的三名研究人员之间的合作伙伴关系，旨在开发用于电动汽车（EV）和电能存储（EES）应用的先进电池。 特斯拉是电动汽车和电能存储领域的全球领导者。 目前，达尔豪西是特斯拉在先进电池研发领域合作的唯一一所大学，这证明了研究团队的质量。 本项目的目标是：1. 降低EV和EES应用的电池成本;2. 延长EV和ESS应用的电池寿命;3. 提高电动汽车和储能系统应用的电池能量密度;4. 维护或提高电动汽车和储能系统应用中电池的安全性; 5. 增加电池中可持续材料的含量。 确保公平，多样性和包容性是项目和研究团队的前沿和中心。实现这些目标将使电动汽车和可再生能源对所有加拿大人来说更容易获得，更实惠。 该应用程序建立在达尔豪西和特斯拉（2016-2021）之间成功的NSERC IRC合作伙伴关系的基础上，Jeff Dahn是主席。 在这份提案中，达尔豪西团队扩大到包括作为特斯拉加拿大主席的杨崇银博士和作为赫兹伯格-达恩主席的迈克尔·梅茨格。 这些杰出的年轻研究人员补充了Dahn博士的专业知识，并将确保达尔豪西仍然是先进电池技术的世界领导者，并在先进电池科学和技术方面受到高度重视。

Advanced Batteries for Electric Vehicle and Grid Energy Storage ApplicationsThis is a partnership between three researchers at Dalhousie University, Tesla Canada and Tesla to develop advanced batteries for electric vehicle (EV) and electrical energy storage (EES) applications. Tesla is the world leader in both electric vehicles and electrical energy storage. At this time Dalhousie is the only university with which Tesla has partnered in the area of advanced battery R+D which speaks to the quality of the research team. The goals of this project are: 1. Lower the costs of batteries for EV and EES applications;2. Increase the lifetime of batteries for EV and ESS applications;3. Increase the energy density of batteries for EV and ESS applications;4. Maintain or improve the safety of batteries for EV and ESS applications; 5. Increase the content of sustainable materials in the batteries and6. Ensure that equity, diversity and inclusiveness are front and center in both the project and in the research team.Achieving these goals will make electric vehicles and renewable energy more accessible and more affordable for all Canadians. This application builds on the successful NSERC IRC partnership between Dalhousie and Tesla (2016-2021) where Jeff Dahn is the chairholder. In this proposal, the Dalhousie team is expanded to include Dr. Chongyin Yang as the Tesla Canada Chair and Michael Metzger as the Herzberg-Dahn Chair. These outstanding young researchers complement Dr. Dahn's expertise and will ensure that Dalhousie remains a world leader in advanced battery technology and a highly regarded source of personnel trained in advanced battery science and technology.
