About this technology

Overview

Innovators at NASA's Glenn Research Center and Langley Research Center have been developing further advancements to the foundational work in solid-state battery development from the SABERS project (LEW-TOPS-167). Building on SABERS' achievement of energy densities over 500 W-hr/kg, the SABERS 2.0 portfolio addresses critical challenges that have limited the scalability and commercial adoption of solid-state batteries. While the original SABERS portfolio demonstrated breakthrough performance in energy density and safety, SABERS 2.0 innovations focus on manufacturing scalability, battery longevity, and operational reliability. The SABERS 2.0 suite specifically addresses three key areas that enable practical implementation of solid-state batteries in demanding applications: cathode efficiency, anode stability, and packaging optimization.
