April 11, 2022, 1:48 a.m. Updated 35 {"title": ["", "Microgrid Energy Storage using Lithum-Sulfur Batteries"], "description": ["", "\nOXIS Energy, a manufacturer Lithium Sulfur battery technology has formed a collaboration with the University of\nSouthampton to demonstrate a new rechargeable battery technology capable of achieving high cycle life at competitive\ncosts to target the microgrid energy storage market. The project will exploit OXIS Energy's core Lithium Sulfur technology\nusing a new electrolyte classification to extend cycle life. The University of Southampton will exploit their extensive\nknowledge of novel electrochemical test techniques to assess candidate electrolyte formulations and then test their\nperformance credentials in the laboratory. These new electrolytes will be then scaled up by OXIS and their full performance\ncharacterised in a prototype Li-S battery cells. The project will demonstrate the commercial feasibility of this new\nrechargeable battery technology for stationary energy storage. If successful developed this technology will reduce\nconsumer costs and carbon emissions whilst improving the Uk's energy security by being less reliant on foreign imports of\nfossil fuels.\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\nPotential Impact:\nThe project aims to develop a new lithium-sulphur battery rechargeable battery technology that will be specially well suited\nfor microgrid energy storage. This will allow a more efficient use of energy: the excess of energy produced by micro-scale\nrenewables will be stored and used when required. This approach has many advantages for the society. The cost of\nelectricity will decrease, the energy security will increase due to a lower dependency on fossil fuels and CO2 emissions will\ndecrease due to an increased use of renewable sources of energy.\nThe approach taken in this project is to apply the concept of solvent in salt electrolytes in lithium-sulphur batteries. Lithiumsulphur\nbatteries have many unique advantages. Especially relevant for microgrid energy storage is the fact that lithiumsulphur\nbatteries are cheap and exhibit a long cycle life. Major improvements in battery performance will be sought in this\nproject by developing new electrolytes based on the solvent in salt concept, where the amount of solvent that is used in the\nbattery can be minimized. This produces an obvious decrease in the cost of the batteries. Safety standards are also\nsignificantly improved with this approach due to the higher cycling stability of the lithium negative electrode.\nThis novel approach could also be highly beneficial in other energy storage systems, such as lithium-metal, lithium-ion and\nlithium-air batteries. It is also likely that these new electrolytes could lead to improved electrocatalysis (e.g. improved\nsynthetic reactions) in the more general context of electrochemistry in organic electrolytes.\nIn addition to the general benefits to the society, this project will underpin the research development of Oxis and\nSouthampton. Oxis will strengthen its position in the rechargeable battery market and will attack further interest and\ninvestment in this novel energy technology. Southampton will gain scientific reputation and expand the research output via\nhigh impact publications, patents, participation in conferences, etc.\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Closed"]}
