Saft has won a contract to supply Li-ion battery systems to Imtech Marine, a leading maritime technology supplier. The vessel is being funded by the Scottish Government to help meet the target set in its Climate Change Delivery Plan to reduce CO 2 emissions in the transport sector by at least 20% by 2020.

A123 Systems introduced Nanophosphate EXT ( EX treme T emperature), a new lithium-ion battery technology capable of operating at extreme temperatures without requiring thermal management. We feel that we have erased the cold cranking deficit—the Achilles heel [for Li-ion] from a performance perspective against lead acid. ”

Gas Li-ion batteries thwart extreme cold South 8 Technologies demonstrates the cold tolerance of its Li-ion battery by burying it in ice at the 2024 ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit. That’s a big improvement on conventional Li-ion batteries, which start to degrade when temps reach 0 °C and shut down at about –20 °C.
