Expeditionary Power- and Energy-Dense Implementations (ExPEDitions)
DARPA is seeking high-energy-density and high-power-density electrically rechargeable batteries and fuel cells through the ExPEDitions program. This effort focuses on combining the endurance of liquid fuels with the logistical advantages of electrical systems. The program is a 36-month project divided into an 18-month Phase 1 base and an 18-month Phase 2 option. Participation begins with a mandatory abstract; only selected proposers will be invited to submit full proposals. Technical performance is measured against specific benchmarks for energy, power, and rechargeability, with validation conducted through Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) protocols. Performers must also enter into Associate Performer Agreements to facilitate data and hardware exchange. The ExPEDitions program seeks foundational advancements in high-energy and high-power density rechargeable batteries and fuel cells. DARPA intends to bridge the gap between the endurance of liquid fuels and the logistical benefits of electrical systems. The solicitation is directed at Battery Developers who will advance core technology and manufacturing capabilities. The ExPEDitions program is a 36-month R&D effort split into an 18-month Phase 1 and an 18-month Phase 2.
