System/Battery Design Interaction for a Lithium-Metal Sulfide van Battery

摘要

A conceptual van battery design based upon system inputs from the Chrysler T-Van Project and an ANL/Toyota Study has been completed. A van battery consisting of 162 Li-Alloy/FeS cells would meet the requirements for range, acceleration, and payload specified by EPRI. Considerable engineering work remains in developing reliable battery modules and battery components for such a battery. A van battery program, funded by EPRI and supported by DOE studies, has been initiated. (ERA citation 09:018729)
