Shandong University of Science and Technology receives 100 million yuan for research and development of aluminum batteries or replacement of lithium batteries?

On January 8, the reporter learned from Shandong University of Science and Technology that the “Aluminum Ion Power and Energy Storage Battery Team” introduced by the school was approved as a team of high-level talents for technological innovation in Qingdao, becoming the first group of 2 top talents introduced in Qingdao. First, it will receive 100 million yuan in financial assistance.

It is reported that the “Aluminum Ion Power and Energy Storage Battery Team” was introduced by the School of Automation of Shandong University of Science and Technology. The team leader Professor Dai Hongjie is an academician of the National Academy of Sciences, a lifetime honorary professor of the Department of Chemistry of Stanford University, a leader in the field of international carbon nanometer research, and a cathode material for graphite. The research of aluminum ion batteries has reached the world's leading level. The team will carry out research and development, preparation and industrialization promotion of high-performance aluminum ion power and energy storage batteries. The new products are expected to replace high-cost lithium-ion batteries and highly polluted lead-acid batteries in the future and can be widely used in distributed energy storage and power grid storage. Energy, electric vehicles and other fields have important implications for promoting the development of Qingdao's new energy industry and enhancing the international competitiveness of China's grid power storage technology.

The person in charge of the School of Automation of Shandong University of Science and Technology said that for the Dai Hongjie team to be approved by the top talent team in Qingdao, the college and talent team will further improve the development plan, pay close attention to the formation of a contingent of innovative teams, guarantee the progress of innovation projects, and further improve the management rules. Inspire the team's vitality in innovation and entrepreneurship, accelerate the creation of technological innovation in the field, and make positive contributions to the development of Qingdao City and China's new energy industry.
