BATTERY 2030+ – large-scale European initiative for battery research starts up

EurekAlert  September 9, 2020 BATTERY 2030+ is a EU Horizon 2020 funded project led by Sweden. The goal is to create more environmentally friendly and safer batteries with better performance, greater storage options and longer life. The current research projects are operating in three different areas: I. Development of a European infrastructure platform to combine large-scale calculations and experimental studies to map the complex reactions that take place in a battery. II. Development and integration of sensors that examine and report on the battery’s health in real time. III. Development of self-healing components that extend battery life and improve safety…read more.

Quantum Technologies Flagship kicks off with first 20 projects

Europa.eu  October 29, 2018 The Flagship will fund over 5,000 of Europe’s leading quantum technologies researchers over the next ten years and aims to place Europe at the forefront of the second quantum revolution. Its long-term vision is to develop in Europe a so-called quantum web, where quantum computers, simulators and sensors are interconnected via quantum communication networks. The Flagship will initially fund 20 projects , with a total of €132 million via the Horizon 2020 programme , and from 2021 onwards it is expected to fund a further 130 projects. Its total budget is expected to reach €1 billion, providing […]
