Hybrid Energy Storage Module (HESM)

Abstract

P456, the Hybrid Energy Storage Module (HESM), co-sponsored by ASD(R&E) and ASD(OEPP), develops advanced technology in energy storage to maximize performance and reliability, and enable future high power weapons and sensor systems on legacy and next generation vehicles, aircraft and ships. The goals of this program are to (1) demonstrate energy storage systems with high power and energy densities, scalable to all power levels, that reduce total logistics demand, increase platform ability to sustain operations during engagement, and (2) reduce maintenance. Once demonstration is complete, this technology will be sustained by the Services. This program is closely coordinated with the Advanced Management and Protection of Energy-storage Devices (AMPED) program of the Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E). AMPED technology will be used to potentially extend the operational performance benefits and safety for these applications beyond the hybrid storage module baseline design configurations.
