The critical barrier to wider deployment of electric vehicles is the high cost and low energy of today’s batteries. This ARPA-E program seeks to develop a new generation of ultra-high energy density, low-cost battery technologies for long range plug-in hybrid and all-electric vehicles.

New innovations in motor technology—printable magnets, high-conductivity windings, and novel architectures—could lead to much smaller, very high energy density systems with twice the useful life that can enable more affordable, better performing PEVs. Lithium-sulfur and lithium-air battery cell development.

The top two awards, one of $9 million to a project led by Dow Chemical, and one of $8.999 million to a project led by PolyPlus, will fund projects tackling, respectively, the manufacturing of low-cost carbon fibers and the manufacturing of electrodes for ultra-high-energy-density lithium-sulfur, lithium-seawater and lithium-air batteries.
