[Seminar] Technical Requirements and Development Trends of Next-Generation Batteries for HAPS Practicalization
[Lecturer]
Mr. Yoshiki Takayanagi, Section Manager, Energy Solution Development Section, Advanced Technology Development Department, Advanced Technology Research Institute, SoftBank Corp.
[Key Lecture Content]
HAPS (High Altitude Platform Station) is an unmanned aircraft that flies in the stratosphere for extended periods, and to achieve year-round operation, battery technology that balances high energy density and high reliability is essential. This lecture will organize the technical requirements for batteries needed in the stratospheric environment and provide an overview of the technological trends in next-generation batteries. Furthermore, it will introduce the current development status, key technical challenges, and efforts toward practical application from the perspectives of cell characteristic evaluation, pack design, and material development.
