According to foreign media reports, several leading Japanese car companies in the industry have launched cooperative projects with the Japanese government to develop solid-state batteries. The new project also cooperates with Li-ion Battery Material Evaluation Research Center (Consortium for Lithium Ion Battery Technology and Evaluation Center, LIBTEC), Toyota, Panasonic and other companies.
To support this project, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) will provide Libtec with 1.6 billion yen (approximately US$ 14 million). The members of this organization include: Asahi Kasei and Toray Industries. ). In addition, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Panasonic and GS Yuasa (GS Yuasa) also participated.
Toyota has been committed to solid-state battery technology, and has not yet advanced to the commercialization stage. The project aims to use the expertise of LIBTEC members to accelerate the commercialization of solid-state lithium-ion batteries.
The core goals of the project include: improving battery performance and establishing safety standards for new batteries.
