Project Objectives

The objective of this project is to enhance the low-temperature performance of a high-power lithium-ion cell through electrolyte research and optimization.

Expected Results

This project aims to:

  1. Improve cold-weather performance for outdoor applications in the Canadian climate including clean energy infrastructure.
  2. Enable technologies that better serve isolated communities with limited road access.
  3. Train multiple highly qualified personnel.
  4. Fill a gap in the lithium-ion cell market to meet the cold temperature requirements of electric ocean transportation, farming, power tools, electric motor sport equipment, electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, and datacenter battery backup units.
  5. Strengthen the midstream of Canada’s battery value chain.
