ADA Technologies is developing and testing a new, rugged, ultra-safe enclosure designed to withstand fire and explosion risks associated with large-format marine lithium-ion batteries of interest to the US Navy.
Availability of robust and reliable gas detection for battery health monitoring is essential to the safe implementation and use of rechargeable batteries in military and commercial applications.
The superior energy and power on both a weight and volume basis of lithium-ion battery technology has made this chemistry the clear choice for a number of DoD applications.
There is an ongoing effort by the Army focused on enhancing the load carriage distribution for the Soldier with a reduced weight burden and increased comfort.

Next generation, high pulse-power batteries are currently required for naval sonobuoys. The batteries must meet a range of requirements, including low-cost, safety, long shelf life, and the ability to discharge at required current densities under a variety
QinetiQ has developed and optimized high-energy lithium carbon monofluoride primary cells (Li/CFx) for space and defense applications and has tested their performance and safety in a number of different formats
Lithium manganese oxide spinel is a potential candidate for Li-ion battery cathodes due to its low toxicity, comparable capacity, and low cost. However, this spinel suffers from capacity fading due to fracturing of the cell structure.
The United States military has identified a need for increased range, payload and endurance for Group 1 Unmanned Air Systems (UAS) to carry out critical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions down range.
G4 has developed a modular, low resistance, high power, large format rechargeable battery with integrated cooling based in part on an advanced Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) technology.
