Williams Advanced Engineering – H1PERBAT
From cradle to the grave
The H1PERBAT project takes an integrated full lifecycle approach to remove constraints on capacity, energy density and thermal management of EV batteries at module and system level to realise a step change in performance for demanding EV applications. The novel pilot facility will anchor unique UK capability in module and system-level R&D. It will provide the knowledge to enable scale-up of production volumes, allowing Williams to flexibly target UK and global electric vehicle manufacturers.
