Overview

In this area, universities, national institutes, and companies will collaborate to develop innovative next-generation storage battery technology, one of the most important technologies for achieving carbon neutrality in 2050 and promote team-based research and development that seamlessly addresses from the establishment of academic principles to the resolution of technological issues in the industrial sector. To accelerate research and development, we will not only develop materials for individual battery components, but also consistently evaluate the performance of developed batteries as a total system, build a database to search for new battery systems, and establish fundamental technologies for next-generation storage batteries. The program also aims to foster human resources with broad perspectives and development capabilities.
