The project 24GRD09 HyMetBat has received funding from the European Partnership on Metrology, co-financed by the European Union's Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme and from the Participating States.
Project overview
Project overview
The European battery industry is under increasing pressure to improve the economic and environmental sustainability of the manufacturing supply chain. Existing technologies such as Li-ion batteries (LIB) rely on critical elements with low earth abundance, are produced via environmentally unfriendly processes and are difficult to recycle.
New metrology is urgently required to support the transition to more sustainable battery chemistries and low carbon footprint manufacturing processes.
This project aims to develop a new hybrid metrology platform bringing together a combination of traceable analytical techniques for both ex situ and operando characterisation of battery materials, to enable innovation in next generation energy storage technologies.
HyMetBat essentials
HyMetBat essentials
Development of:
an hybrid metrology platform comprising analytical methods to measure the (electro)chemical, structural and thermal properties of sustainable and low carbon footprint battery materials.
new metrology approaches and procedures to support recycling of battery materials.
new instrumentation and traceable methodologies for coupled hybrid-operando characterisation of emerging sustainable battery materials.
modelling and computational tools enabled by hybrid metrology.
facilitate the take-up of the metrology infrastructure developed.
What is the Metrology Partnership?
What is the Metrology Partnership?
The Metrology Partnership will bring together the measurement science community and stakeholders to deliver on global challenges including health and climate, support the European Green Deal, and underpin innovation in industry through collaborative research.
Metrology, the science of measurement, is a building block for an industrialised and increasingly globalised and digital society: Reliable measurements are essential for innovation in industry, research, trade and regulation. New societal challenges and emerging technologies increase the need for accurate, precise, and trustworthy measurements and thus for novel measurement capabilities.
The Metrology Partnership aims to support accelerating the transition towards a green, climate neutral and digital Europe, as well as strengthening the resilience, competitiveness, and economic growth of the European industry.
European Partnerships are a key implementation tool of the European Commission’s Horizon Europe; an ambitious research and innovation programme, running from 2021 to 2027.
The European Partnership on Metrology is co-funded by the Member States and the European Union with an expected budget of over 650 million euro. The expected impact of the European Partnership on Metrology is manifold, as it will support a wide range of policies, commerce and advancement of key European challenges.
The Partnership builds on the progress achieved under the previous European Metrology Research Programmes, and aims to break new ground by contributing to the development of self-sustaining, coordinated metrology infrastructures, with the capacity to continue joint research and innovation after 2030.

What are the project outcomes?
What are the project outcomes?
Outcomes on industrial and other user communities
The uptake of the new know-how developed in the OpMetBat project will deliver a lasting impact of improving battery performance, durability and safety as fade and failure mechanisms become better understood.
Outcomes for the metrology and scientific communities
The good practice guide developed will benefit the scientific community by improving reliability, repeatability/reproducibility and fidelity of operando measurements. The project will pioneer operando metrology for battery research at several European synchrotron radiation facilities and the transfer into laboratories to support industry and researchers.
