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，目前是一家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，其中40多家公司参与制造电池组件和电池组预定用于各个行业，包括交通、移动的和电子设备，以及住宅、商业和工业建筑和住宅。汽车电气化的快速发展进一步强调了价格合理、高性能和可靠的储能系统的重要性。此外，有多达50家处于早期阶段的储能开发商致力于各种绿色储能技术的商业化，包括不同的电池平台和化学物质、超级电容器和压缩空气等。这些公司中有许多处于各自领域的前沿，需要技术和专业支持，以继续开发新的绿色存储技术并改进旧的技术。兰顿学院在过去的十年中与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，选择和表征方面为他们提供了帮助，组件和子系统的制造和测试，以及系统集成和优化。兰顿的研究团队由设计、制造、测试、原型制作和集成等电池开发相关领域的专业知识组成，为工业合作伙伴提供有价值的全面创新支持。为了利用现有的基础设施和专业知识，在过去成功和成就的基础上，继续支持中小企业（SME），同时提供重要的经济、社会、文化和其他方面的支持，兰顿将继续致力于推动电池行业的发展。和加拿大经济的环境效益，兰顿学院建议建立一个“电能存储研究平台（EESRP）"。该平台将与七个已确认的行业合作伙伴密切合作，开发新的和增强现有的储能技术，并与在这一不断发展的领域需要援助的其他中小企业和大型能源公司建立新的关系。EESRP还将创造一个有利的教学环境，培养高素质的人才，至少12名学生和12名最近的毕业生在未来两年内。

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.
