Solid Power today announced an award from the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) to develop nickel- and cobalt-free all-solid-state battery cells. Solid Power expects to receive up to $12.5M to complete the project through the life of the contract.
Solid Power plans to collaborate with the University of Maryland to develop a nano-scale iron sulfide pyrite (FeS2) cathode that is largely comprised of iron and sulfur.
A Solid Power scientist holds iron pyrite, a material used in the company’s next-generation cathode design.
Solid Power’s objective is to produce multi-layer cells meeting intelligence application needs for high energy density, high power density, long calendar life, quiet operation, and robustness to extreme environmental conditions.
This effort leverages Solid Power’s next generation advanced cathode formulation, which has the potential to cut cathode active material cost by over 90 percent.
The IARPA award substantiates the flexibility of Solid Power’s All-Solid-State Platform technology, which can enable high energy electrode materials not suitable in lithium-ion or other liquid-based cell architectures and provides an opportunity to demonstrate the potential benefits of next-generation chemistries ahead of introduction into automotive applications.
