The Institute focuses on clean energy storage and highly efficient utilization, and is committed to the R&D and breakthrough of compressed air energy storage and smart energy Internet technology.
Imagine a world where storage plays a much larger role in advancing the coming energy transitions in vehicles, the grid, even electric flight. We would have specialized batteries for our own electric vehicles, for short
MITEI''s work includes development and techno-economic evaluation of emerging storage technologies, as well as quantifying what it will take to scale and deploy them—and what the associated system impacts might be.
Our systems-level approach guides basic science and research to develop and characterize high-performing materials and components with a focus on reliability, longevity, and durability to protect critical energy
The BEST Center was formed in 2011 to bring together the campus-wide expertise in energy storage, foster collaboration, and provide a focal point for research and education activities.
Our research will synergistically combine cutting-edge experimental analytics, physics-based modeling, and data-driven approaches to interrogate, understand, and advance the safety of next-generation battery chemistries.
CEI researchers are pushing the envelope on batteries that can store much more energy than current lithium-ion cells. The goal is to develop breakthrough, but low-cost, materials and battery designs that can fully utilize new high-performing materials.
Our systems-level approach guides basic science and research to develop and characterize high-performing materials and components with a focus on reliability, longevity, and durability to protect critical energy infrastructure.
Imagine a world where storage plays a much larger role in advancing the coming energy transitions in vehicles, the grid, even electric flight. We would have specialized batteries for our own electric vehicles, for short-hauling people and goods, and for long-haul freight.
The main construction includes a new lithium battery R&D center, a lithium battery testing center, a lithium battery Pack system integration production line, an automated warehousing system, office buildings, and other industrial support facilities.
