A company called Factorial, which counts Stellantis and Mercedes as investors, claims its solid-state battery technology uses less lithium than traditional batteries, which could potentially reduce costs, especially as production ramps up.
The announcement comes as several companies have recently announced plans to develop and produce solid-state EV batteries. CATL, the world’s largest EV maker (37.8% market share), said it aims to produce all-solid-state EV batteries by 2027, but initially in small batches. The company said high production costs could remain a challenge.
CleanTechnica has spilled plenty of ink on solid-state EV battery technology, which represents the next step up from conventional lithium-ion batteries for mobile energy storage (see more solid-state stories here). Today’s lithium-ion batteries have done a good job of launching electric vehicles into commercial production.
Based on its specs, Tailan New Energy states its solid-state battery cell sets industry records in both energy density and storage capacity.
“We believe that our newly developed material for solid-state batteries can make a significant contribution to the energy transformation of society. We will continue the development towards early commercialisation,” said TDK’s chief executive Noboru Saito.
The “holy grail” of EV battery tech may arrive sooner than expected, promising more range and faster charging. According to BYD head scientist and engineer Lian Yubo, solid-state EV batteries could be in wide use in five years.
