ABOUT SUBLIME
Sulfide electrolyte solid-state batteries for EV applications
Wide global deployment of electric vehicles (EVs) is necessary to reduce transport related emissions, as transport is responsible for around a quarter of EU greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and more than two thirds of transport-related GHG emissions are from road transport.
SUBLIME’s overall aim is to significantly increase EV adoption by taking on the technical challenges that are presented by the consumer needs – especially the reduction in costs of EVs, increasing their capabilities regarding long distance traveling and fast charging.
NEWS
TRA_Conference 2024 on 15th – 18th of April 2024 takes place in Dublin, Ireland.
The Innovation and Networking days on All-Solid-State Battery Technologies will be held on the 27th and 28th of September 2023.
Welcome back to SUBLIME after a hopefully relaxing summer. Our consortium members are back for work with refreshed minds and renewed spirits.
