Stellantis announced on Thursday that it will strengthen its twenty-year collaboration with the French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission (CEA) to develop new next-generation battery cell technologies.

The new program, signed for a five-year period, aims to design cost-competitive cells to help make battery electric vehicles more affordable.

The aim of the partnership is also to achieve superior performance, longer life and a reduced environmental footprint

The project will focus on breakthrough chemistries, life cycle analysis and battery cell design and validation.

Stellantis - which claims to work closely with start-ups, laboratories, universities and research organizations such as the CEA - is convinced that this collaboration with the CEA will accelerate the arrival of breakthrough technologies.

The CEA claims 25 years of expertise in the field of lithium-ion batteries for the automotive industry and electric mobility.
