Largest Automotive Battery Lab Opens in the US

General Motors has officially launched the Global Battery Systems Lab, a new facility that is expected to be a haven for the expected swarm of electric cars thriving on electric batteries. This new facility is likewise expected to speed up the car manufacturing efforts of General Motors for new hybrid vehicles which also includes the Chevy Volt.

The state-of-the-art facility is the size of seven basketball courts and is the largest in the United States. A team of more than 1,000 engineers will work on energy alternatives and advanced technologies that reduce dependence on petroleum, improve fuel economy and reduce emissions; putting cleaner, more efficient cars on the road more quickly and affordably.
