SCiBTM Batteries Become a Vable Option for HEV/EV Manufacturers 作为HEV 及EV 用电池，SCiBTM 将成为汽车厂商的有力选择 Mr. Keizoh Honda, technical executive of Rechargeable Battery System of Transmission Distribution & Industrial Systems Company in Toshiba Corporation, said, “We are a relative new-comer to the rechargeable battery business. But, we feel quite a positive feedback about their evaluations of “SCiBTM” from automobile manufacturers.” With its lithium-ion rechargeable battery using lithium-titanate at anode, branded as SCiBTM, Toshiba made an entry to the rechargeable battery business last spring. It is steady building up track records for applications of electric bicycles and AGV (automatic guided vehicles) for factories and warehouses. The target at which Toshiba aims next is lithium-ion battery market for HEVs and EVs. The company has finished the development of batteries for HEVs, which advance output performance based on the batteries for the general industrial use. Furthermore, Toshiba begins sample shipment of high-energy lithium-ion batteries for EVs this fall. Here, we interview Mr. Honda about the advantages and features of Toshiba’s lithium-ion batteries for automotive use. "我们才刚刚涉足新一代充电电池业务。但汽车厂商对 SCiBTM 的评价则令我们感到欣慰"。东芝电力流通产业系统公司充电电池系统总工程师本多启三如此说道。东芝凭借负极使用钛酸锂的锂离子充电电池"SCiBTM"开始涉足产业用充电电池业务。这种电池从去年春季开始量产，目前已被电动自行车及工厂内的自动搬运车等采用。东芝确定的下一目标是开发出用于混合动力车及电动汽车的锂离子电池。该公司已在一般产业用电池单元的基础上，开发出了输出性能更高的HEV 用电池。并计划从今年秋季开始样品供货高能量型 EV 用锂离子电池。笔者就东芝的汽车用锂离子电池的开发方针及其特点采访了本多。（采访人：白石泰基＝Techno Associates）。 What are the main ...
