STABLE Kick-off meeting Torino – October 25 th - 26 th,2012 Workplan – overall target Milestone MS11 - Assembling of complete cells (M32) Cell assembly and test at lab-scale:  Expected specific capacity should be >2000 mAh/g  Life cycle = cycles

STABLE Kick-off meeting Torino – October 25 th - 26 th,2012 Workplan - tasks T5.1: Assembling obtained materials into a complete cell (M6-M32) CEGASA (14PM) T5.2: Analysis of the performance impact of different assembly techniques with different electrolytes (M6-M32) CEG (8PM) UCC (5PM) Development of full cell from coin-type to pouch-type Li-air concept cell operated in ambient conditions Transfer data/samples from - Candidate materials (substrates, electrolyte, membrane) - Preparation procedures of the lithium and catalytic air electrodes) Note: slurry development needs > 100g active material

STABLE Kick-off meeting Torino – October 25 th - 26 th,2012 Workplan T5.3: Characterization and evaluation of the performance of the cells assembled (M6-M32) ELAPHE (22 PM), UCC (10PM), CEG (8PM) Define electrochemical testing program and parameters (current rates, DoD,…)  comparability of results for different cell types M6 with compilation of existing and proposed testing programs: - Applicable International Standards - Internal know-how of partners – Modelling inputs M6 first samples for: - Electrochemical testing (charge/discharge…) - In-situ mechanical & optical tests - Electrical connections, internal resistance - Post mortem surface morphology & phase identification (previous cycling needed)
