Presentation Summary

Company Profile (IBM)

Goal: create a powerful new battery for electric cars

as good as gasoline
500 miles/800 km range per charge
a total electric drive system comparable in size, weight and price to a gasoline drive train

Technical Approach:

a lightweight 'air-cathode' replaces heavy metal-oxide cathods of today
encapsulated Lithium metal anode

Outlook:

this is a very high risk/very high reward, long horizon project
3 years basic science, know of commercial applications before ~2020
joined research effort with National Labs and commercial partners
if successful, such batteries could dramatically reduce oil dependency
