Innovative energy storage technologies for the Internet of Things

Project description

Prismatic and planar capacitors for energy storage

The Internet of Things (IoT) is central to the ongoing transformation of technology and energy systems. The EU-funded IoT-CAP project aims to build on the findings of the P.CAP initiative by developing prismatic supercapacitor cells and planar capacitor cells using Relaxor Ferroelectric (RFE) materials. This will apply the manufacturing techniques developed during the P.CAP project for planar electrochemical cells. In addition, the project will focus on benchmarking its technologies against commercial cells, analysing market competitiveness and assessing the preliminary intellectual property landscape. It will also identify a unique value proposition and estimate the budget for scale-up. All findings will be compiled into a business case.

Objective

At the core of the ongoing transformation of technology and energy systems lies the Internet of Things (IoT), a network of interconnected devices capable of collecting and exchanging data with unprecedented efficiency and precision. In this project we aim to develop two different experimental approaches to expand the knowledge gained from the P.CAP project. To develop prismatic supercapacitor cells, using our know-how on coating carbon electrodes for supercapacitors; and to develop planar capacitor cells with Relaxor Ferroelectric (RFE) materials making use of the techniques develop during P.CAP for the manufacturing of planar electrochemical cells. The project will have a strong focus on benchmarking technologies with commercial cells, market competitiveness analysis, preliminary IP landscape, unique value proposition, preliminary budget estimation for scale-up, all of which will be compiled in a business case.
