　　5 times the capacity and only 1/5 the cost. The United States plans to invest US$120 million in the development of new batteries

　　U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu said in an interview with the media that the ultimate goal of this research plan is to develop a new battery with a capacity that is five times that of the current battery, and the cost of the new battery will be reduced. 1/5 to now. The focus of research and development efforts is on products that require batteries in the transportation field and the U.S. National Grid.

　　The Joint Center for Energy Storage Research (JCESR), announced in February this year, is now the home of battery and energy storage research. The U.S. Department of Energy will invest US$120 million in research and development funds for this purpose. To this end, the Department of Energy has also joined forces with some well-known universities, independent laboratories and private technology companies to participate. The research center is now headed by George Crabtree, a scientist from Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois, and five well-known universities in the northwest United States and Chicago are involved in the research and development of this project.

　　The U.S. Department of Energy attaches great importance to battery and energy storage research efforts and pointed out that current battery energy research and development is very similar to the previous Manhattan Project. During World War II, the U.S. government organized a large number of scientists and elites from various fields to jointly invest in the research and development of atomic bombs. At that time, the U.S. government invested a total of US$2 billion in the Manhattan Project (approximately US$26 billion today). Although there is a big gap in funding between the two, it can be seen from this that the US government attaches great importance to this scientific research project.

　　Battery and energy storage research efforts will have a huge impact on the efficiency of renewable energy use in the United States. What is exciting is that once this new type of battery is successfully developed, it will definitely have a huge impact on today's electronic products. Perhaps the battery life of smartphones and tablets in ten years will be greatly increased.
