About this award

NASA Glenn Research Center awarded a definitive contract to Advanced Thermal Batteries Inc. for long-life thermal battery development on January 1, 2022, with a ceiling value of $636,173.24 under a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure. The contract was sole-source to Advanced Thermal Batteries Inc.

The originating solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation notice in July 2021, sought development of high-temperature rechargeable battery technology to meet Venusian surface probe needs, focusing on improving safety, low self-discharge, high specific energy, and high energy density. The batteries must operate at 460 degrees Celsius with a minimum 60-day design life under Venus surface conditions and meet specific energy and energy density targets between 25V and −25V. Work includes battery design, component selection, fabrication and testing of screening batteries, and development of electrical feedthroughs compatible with the extreme Venus environment.

Place of performance is Westminster, MD. The contract is scheduled for ultimate completion on July 31, 2026.
