Scientists Just Manufactured #Australia’s First #Lithium-Ion Battery
Thanks to QUT, #Australia’s first facility to produce commercial grade #Lithium-ion batteries is up and running.
It is the only place in the country capable of making the batteries – which are in the same format as those used to power #Tesla cars – because of it’s low humidity electro-manufacturing dry rooms.
“Importantly, as part of this project we identified the best lithium-based powders to use to create a battery of the highest energy-efficiency standards possible,” said Professor Peter Talbot from QUT’s Institute for Future Environments.
