Solid Power has teamed with Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) to develop an all solid-state lithium-ion battery (ASSB), enabled by a high-capacity Si anode and a solid state electrolyte (SSE). Replacing liquid electrolytes with solid electrolytes addresses the calendar life challenges that currently limit the widespread adoption of Si anodes. In this project, Si-SSE composite materials have been developed with a specific capacity >1500 mAh/g (at electrode level). A Si anode was coated by using a roll-to-roll process. All-solid-state NMC-Si pouch cells have been assembled and tested. Cycle life of 1100 at 100% DOD has been demonstrated in the solid state Si pouch cell. Excellent calendar life is achieved in the cell via a high temperature storage test.
In the past 6 years, the UW team have collaborated extensively with the Battery500 Consortium team members, including The Pacific Northwest National Lab, The Idaho National Lab, Binghamton University, and UT Austin. We have accomplished all milestones and deliverables at the end of the program.

The batteries of an energy storage system designed for multiple use-cases are traditionally selected to withstand the highest rate at which a battery is discharged relative to its maximum capacity (C-rate) and cycling requirements of the most intense use-case. However, this is not cost-effective given that the price of the batteries is strongly correlated to C-rate and cyclability. We propose to establish design guidelines for a hybrid energy storage system and test an edge controller that uses high-power and high-energy batteries for high- cyclability use cases such as frequency regulation and electric vehicle (EV) charging and low-cost batteries for low-power and low-cyclability use cases such as summer peak loads. The three main objectives of this proposal are (i) establishing sizing guidelines for such a hybrid storage system, (ii) installing a hybrid storage system in the Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF) sized based on those guidelines, and (iii) testing an edge controller specific for the system through hardware tests.
The intent of this project was to determine appropriate methodologies for analysis of lithium isotopes for 1) quasi-online monitoring of isotope separations, and 2) high-precision characterization of end-products, including lithium fluoride and lithium-beryllium fluoride (FLiBe). Traditionally, isotopic analysis requires the use of expensive, sophisticated instrumentation with often relatively long analytical timelines. We determined that the use of cheaper, smaller, and easier-to-operate instruments are sufficient for rapid analysis of lithium isotopes to monitor isotope separation efficiencies. In addition, we found that the analytical precision afforded by these lower-cost instruments is comparable to the more sophisticated (i.e., more expensive) instrumentation when the isotopic composition of lithium becomes highly depleted in 6Li. This finding will ultimately help lower costs of manufacturing of depleted lithium that is required for operation of certain designs of Generation IV nuclear reactors.
