It is also expected that demand for lithium-ion batteries will increase up to tenfold by 2030, according to the US Department for Energy, so manufacturers are constantly building battery plants to keep up. Lithium mining can be controversial as it can take several years to develop and has a considerable impact on the environment.
A team of researchers from Guangdong University of Technology achieved a major breakthrough in lithium-ion battery technology that could make electric vehicles and energy storage cheaper. Traditionally, lithium-ion batteries used to power EVs and renewable energy grids are made of lithium iron phosphate and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide.
Scientists in China have made a potentially game-changing development in batteries that could make our electronics more efficient and safer, Tech Xplore reported. Much of our technology is powered by lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium-sulfur technology could unlock cheaper, better batteries for electric vehicles that can go farther on a single charge. I covered one company trying to make them a reality earlier this year. Thermal batteries are so hot right now. In fact, readers chose the technology as our 11th Breakthrough Technology of 2024.
Lithium metal batteries can hold at least a third more energy per pound as lithium-ion. “A car equipped with a lithium metal battery would have twice the range of a lithium-ion vehicle of equal size – 600 miles per charge versus 300 miles, for example,” said co-lead author Philaphon Sayavong, a PhD student in chemistry.
“We were looking for the easiest, cheapest, and fastest way to improve lithium metal cycling life,” said study co-lead author Wenbo Zhang, a Stanford PhD student in materials science and engineering. “We discovered that by resting the battery in the discharged state, lost capacity can be recovered and cycle life increased.
