Imagine a battery that charges almost instantly and lasts for years without wearing out. This project creates a special carbon-based material that acts like a high-speed sponge for electricity. It bridges the gap between slow-charging batteries and fast-discharging capacitors, making devices more powerful and safer.
Current energy storage like lithium-ion batteries suffer from safety risks, resource dependency, and slow charging. Supercapacitors solve the speed and safety issues but typically lack the energy density needed for widespread commercial use.
An industrially compatible SC-GN3 nitrogen-doped graphene electrode material and functional prototypes of pouch and wound supercapacitor cells.
If you are an EV manufacturer dealing with slow charging times and battery degradation — this project developed SC-GN3 electrodes that achieve up to 75 Wh/kg energy density. This allows for quicker power leveling and rapid response in high-power applications.
If you are a data center provider dealing with the need for secure, high-stability backup power for big data networks — this project developed supercapacitors with a potential power density of 19 kW/kg. This ensures safe operation and rapid energy delivery during power fluctuations.
If you are a medical tech firm dealing with the limited lifetime and safety risks of lithium batteries in implants — this project developed a sustainable, nitrogen-doped graphene material. It offers a long cycle life and avoids the fire safety issues associated with traditional lithium-ion systems.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost-per-unit is not mentioned, though the project focused on industrial scalability and RoHS/REACH compliance to reduce costs.
Yes, the project established a synthesis protocol enabling batch production of up to 3 kg under real industrial conditions.
Based on available project data, the project focused on technology transfer to industrial partners like Itelcond, but specific patent numbers or licensing terms are not listed.
The wound cell assembly protocols were validated to ensure compatibility with existing industrial manufacturing lines.
The project period runs from 2022-09-01 to 2025-08-31, aiming to reach a readiness level of 6 by the end of the term.
The consortium is lean and focused, consisting of 3 partners across 3 countries (CZ, IL, IT). With a 33% industry ratio, the project balances academic research from two universities with direct industrial application, specifically targeting the transition from lab proof-of-concept to manufacturing readiness.
