International R&D project New Materials for electric drive vehicles

This research project was organized by the U.S. Department of Energy (United States Department of Energy (DoE), Argonne National Laboratory, USA (Argonne National Laboratory, USA) unites a number of U.S. partner companies with several research organizations in Ukraine for the development of new batteries for electric drive vehicles.

Main objective of that project is to develop a number of experimental and new lines of experimental equipment for the development of technologies and materials for the manufacturing of batteries for electric drive vehicles.

Materials research Centre,Ltd will develop, design and produce some pilot auxiliary equipment for the further assembling of the technological parts of equipment developed by other project participants, in the full production line.
