gleaned from EVS-15 battery tech abstracts

visiting

avere.org

is useful. sorting by company shows these eye-catchers:

panasonic:

has 95 Ah "in mass production" for rental cars
(baseline GMO1 is 90 Ah, GM02 is 100 Ah, according
to ENER 1997 stockholder letter)

uses 28Ah hybrid unit

saft:

100 Ah at the pilot plant, destined for chrysler epic

saft america:

105 Wh/kg LiON at the module level in benchtest

matsushita:

studying lead-acid (!) for hybrids

GMO
something vague

ovonic battery co:

HEV 60 does 68 Wh/kg specific energy
600 W/kg spec. power
1400 W/L power density

[for comparison, these are de-rated from the 1997
letter numbers, which are 70/630/1400, respectively]

honda R&D america:

notes real-world range for ev+ is 25% less than EPA city

honda r&d co. ltd:

EV+ batts have a memory effect / lots of geek info
on temperature/charging control

likely, there's much i've missed.
if anyone here has the full proceedings, please post other insight.
