ARPA-E Funding for Energy Storage System Development ? Apply by March 21, 2013

February 20th, 2013

The Robust Affordable Next Generation Energy Storage Systems (RANGE) program seeks to improve EV range and reduce vehicle costs by re-envisioning the total EV battery system, rather than working to increase the energy density of individual battery cells.?

RANGE projects will focus on developing robust battery chemistries and architectures that would improve vehicle driving range and overall battery robustness. RANGE projects will also focus on multifunctional energy storage designs that use these robust storage systems to simultaneously serve other functions on a vehicle, thus further reducing an energy storage system?s effective weight and overall electric vehicle weight.

ARPA-E is encouraging outstanding scientists and engineers from different organizations, scientific disciplines, and technology sectors to form new project teams for RANGE applications and projects. ARPA-E believes that interdisciplinary and cross-organizational collaborations can facilitate scientific and technological discoveries that a single group alone would not be able to achieve.

If you are interested in forming a RANGE team within Oregon, Drive Oregon may be able to help you connect with potential partner researchers or companies. ?Email emmaline@driveoregon.org to get that conversation started.

Details

The submission deadline for RANGE Concept Papers is 5 p.m. ET on March 21, 2013.
