Johnson Controls Inc. has been working with COMSAT Laboratories and Sandia National Laboratories on the development of the nickel-hydrogen battery for terrestrial applications. Some of the results are sufficiently interesting that consideration of them for aerospace applications is warranted. The major emphasis of the program was on reduction of the manufacturing cost of the aerospace cell. A significant reduction in cost was achieved through several technical developments, component changes, and process improvements. Two technical developments led to the greater part of the reduction. The first was the development of an energy-efficient 70 mm thick positive electrode. The second was a negative electrode utilizing a platinum-on-carbon catalyst. The manufacturing costs were also studied
