Introduction

The world population is significantly increasing and its reliance on energy-based devices is higher than ever before. This leads to a continuous rise in global energy consumption.

Demand for Energy Storage

In addition, the ever-increasing demand for energy storage devices with improved performances and stability in securing safe operation of big data centers and networks for the "internet of things", transportation, grid storage, electronics in space applications, and implanted medical devices is motivating the scientific community to develop new chemistries, compositions, and morphologies of electrode materials in order to meet these challenges.

Current Limitations

Currently, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, the most widely used electrochemical energy storage system of today, are still limited in terms of power densities and fire safety issues in many applications.

Development of SC-GN3

Within the ERC-CoG 2D-CHEM and the subsequent ERC-PoC UP2DCHEM, the team of Prof. Otyepka developed a nitrogen super-doped graphene electrode material (SC-GN3), with an unprecedented density. Supercapacitors (SC) made by SC-GN3 material can achieve up to:

  1. 75 Wh/kg (200 Wh/L) energy density
  2. High-power density capability with potential up to 19 kW/kg (50 kW/L), twice higher than the reference state of the art.

Increasing the energy density of SC beyond 25 Wh/kg will offer a paradigm shift in SC technologies, allowing their wide application in electric vehicles and as support for batteries in power leveling and quick response devices for high power applications.

Project Goals

The TRANS2DCHEM project intends to take this important field beyond its state-of-the-art, via the exploitation of the previously unexplored properties of the material, imparting top-rated performance in the respective energy storage devices.

Technology Readiness

The proposal will bring the technology readiness of the described energy storage devices to a level of 6, by validating their operation in an industrially relevant environment in coin, pouch, and wound (cylindrical) cells.
