Tenders are invited for High-Energy Solid-State Battery Cell for Satcom Application (Artes at 4f.173) - Expro+ Objective: The objective of the activity is to develop, manufacture and test a high-energy, solid-state battery cell with a specific energy over 300 Wh/kg and a minimum capacity of 4-5 Ah.Targeted Improvements:- Enabling high energy low volume battery for high ratio aspect satellite.- Increase specific energy at cell level by at least 35%- Increase cell intrinsic safety. Description: Batteries are a key component of the power sub-system of telecommunication satellites and have a significant impact in the platform design. The size and mass of satellite batteries is driven by the current achievable specific and volumetric energy parameters and operational depth of discharge (DoD). Solid state battery is considered as next generation battery technology due to significant improvement compared to conventional Li ion technology: more energy, more power, increased safety and higher production rates. Other concepts, like a new application of composite materials to create a multi-functional composite panel that can store electrical charge, could also be very relevant for flat satellites applications.This activity will conduct a thorough state-of-the-art assessment on solid state battery technologies in Europe and world-wide. A battery cell breadboard with a capacity of at least 4 Ah, and a specific energy of 300 Wh/kg will be designed, developed, manufactured and tested. The test campaign will include cycling at 100% Depth of Discharge to validate their cyclability, accelerated life tests and safety tests. Finally, a manufacturing upscale assessment will be performed to assess the feasibility for mass production.Procurement Policy: C(2) = A relevant participation (in terms of qualityand quantity) of non-primes (incl. SMEs) is required.
