The Electrochemical Storage Systems has divided its activities into seven functional areas. These are: (1) near-term batteries, (2) advanced batteries, (3) solar applications, (4) dispersed applications, (5) electrochemical systems, (6) supporting research, and (7) electrolytic technology. The near term program is dedicated to the creation of viable batteries for electric vehicles in the pre- and post-1985 periods. The advanced battery and electrochemical systems support longer term vehicle battery requirements and solar and dispersed applications. The solar and dispersed applications are each specifically targeted to provide batteries appropriate for the intended application. Electrochemical systems and supporting research provide the fundamental and applied research for support of the other programs. The Electrolytic Technology Program is targeted at developing energy efficient electrolytic and electrochemical industrial processes and is intended to directly conserve energy. This program summary provides short synopses of the objectives, pesent status, problem areas, and current accomplishments of each contractor and subcontractor supporting DOE in the area of electrochemical storage systems.
