On July 11, 2025, the kick-off meeting for the AnSiLiS project took place in Berlin: “Analytics- and simulation-based development of application-relevant and catalytically optimized Li/S pouch cells – A leap into a new battery era.”
We at E-Lyte are proud to be part of this forward-looking research project. AnSiLiS aims to develop and optimize a semi-solid lithium-sulfur battery concept that enables improved electrolyte control, more stable sulfur cathodes, and more efficient cell kinetics. Using simulation-supported electrolyte and material development as well as multimodal operando analysis, new solution strategies will be developed and demonstrated in multilayer pouch cells.
This approach is expected to accelerate development processes, optimize cell architecture, and enhance compatibility between cathode material and electrolyte. AnSiLiS thus makes an important contribution to the advancement of sustainable energy storage technologies and supports a technologically sovereign and resource-efficient battery value chain in Germany.
The project consortium comprises eight partners from science and industry. Alongside us, E-Lyte Innovations GmbH, the following institutions are involved:
- Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin for Materials and Energy (project co-coordination)
- Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena
- Deutsches Zentrum für Luft-und Raumfahrt e.V. at the Helmholtz Institute Ulm (HIU)
- Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg
- Fraunhofer IWS
- Technische Universität Dresden
Additionally, Cabot Battery Materials GmbH is participating as an associated partner.
The project is funded by the Bundesministerium für Forschung, Technologie und Raumfahrt as part of the initiative B@TS – Battery Competence Centrally Networked.”
We look forward to the collaboration and to shaping the next generation of high-performance, sustainable batteries together!
