Abstract

GREEN2MOVE proposes a structured research plan to develop and scale up (TRL 3-4 to 5-6) novel electrode and cell component manufacturing processes in potassium-based systems. This is, seeking for the minimum environmental impact and energy consumption, cell designs which facilitate the re-use and disassembly, increasement of the cost-efficiency and safety of processes and products, and high-throughput technologies able to be easily scaled up and automated in the context of industry 4.0/5.0 giga-factories. The main objective of GREEN2MOVE is to boost the next wave of non-critical raw materials-based and biomass-derived electrodes and electrolytes and cell component processing techniques, enabling breakthrough innovations to improve the environmental, economic and social performance of potassium-based cells manufacturing industry, thus positioning Italy at the forefront of the global market.
