Electrical Energy Storage Research Platform

40多年来，加拿大一直是可再生能源技术的领导者，目前是世界级绿色能源公司的一部分，该公司包括清洁技术领域的850多家公司，40多家公司参与制造电池组件和电池组，这些电池组件和电池组计划用于各种行业，包括交通、移动和电子设备，以及住宅、商业和工业建筑和住宅。汽车电气化的快速步伐进一步突显了负担得起、高性能和可靠的储能系统的重要性。此外，多达50家早期储能开发商正致力于一系列绿色储能技术的商业化，包括不同的电池平台和化学品、超级电容器和压缩空气等。其中许多公司处于各自领域的领先地位，需要技术和专业支持来继续开发新的绿色存储技术和改进旧的存储技术。在过去十年中，兰伯顿学院与70多家加拿大能源公司在能源存储和可再生能源领域进行了合作，并在材料开发、选择和表征、部件和子系统制造和测试以及系统集成和优化方面为它们提供了帮助。Lambton的研究团队由与电池开发相关的各个领域的专业知识组成，如设计、制造、测试、原型和集成，为工业合作伙伴提供宝贵和全面的创新支持。为了利用现有的基础设施和专业知识，并在过去成功和成就的基础上再接再厉，继续支持中小企业(SME)，同时为加拿大经济提供显著的经济、社会和环境效益，Lambton学院提议建立一个“电能储存研究平台(EESRP)”。拟议的平台将与七个已确认的行业伙伴密切合作，开发新的能源储存技术并加强现有技术，并与在这一不断发展的领域需要援助的其他中小型企业和大型能源公司建立新的关系。EESRP还将创造有利的教学环境，在未来两年培养至少12名学生和12名应届毕业生。

Canada has been a leader in renewable energy technologies for well over 40 years and is currently part of a world-class green energy company that includes over 850 companies in the cleantech sector with more than 40 companies involved in manufacturing battery components and battery banks slated for various industries, including transportation, mobile and electronic devices, and residential, commercial, and industrial buildings and dwellings. The rapid pace of vehicle electrification has further underlined the importance of affordable, high-performance, and reliable energy storage systems.In addition, there are as many as 50 early-stage energy storage developers working towards the commercialization of a wide array of green energy storage technologies, including different battery platforms and chemistries, supercapacitors, and compressed air to name a few. A number of these companies are at the forefront of their respective fields and require technical and professional support to continue developing new green storage technologies and improving the old ones.Lambton College has collaborated with more than 70 Canadian energy companies in the area of energy storage and renewable energy, over the past ten years and have assisted them in materials development, selection and characterization, component and subsystem fabrication and testing, and system integration and optimization. Lambton's research team consists of expertise in the various areas related to battery development such as design, manufacturing, testing, prototyping, and integration offer industrial partners valuable and comprehensive innovation support.To utilize existing infrastructure and expertise and build on past success and accomplishments and to continue supporting small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) while providing significant economic, social, and environmental benefits to Canadian economies, Lambton College is proposing to establish an "Electrical Energy Storage Research Platform (EESRP)". The proposed platform will develop new and enhance existing energy storage technologies in close collaboration with seven confirmed industry partners as well as establishing new relationships with other SMEs and larger energy companies requiring assistance in this ever-evolving field. EESRP will also create a conducive teaching environment to train highly qualified personnel, at least 12 students and 12 recent graduates in the next two years.
