Ford is exploring a variety of “beyond Li-ion” solutions, including Lithium-sulfur, Lithium-air and solid-state lithium-ion batteries. It also offers a high theoretical specific energy density. Li-sulfur is also a low-cost system due to the low cost of sulfur, also offers high energy density, Anandan said.

Researchers from Argonne National Laboratory, with colleagues in the US and Korea, have demonstrated a lithium-oxygen battery based on lithium superoxide (LiO 2 ). The researchers attributed the growth of the lithium superoxide to the spacing of iridium atoms in the electrode used in the experiment. —Khalil Amine.

An international team from MIT, Argonne National Laboratory and Peking University has demonstrated a lab-scale proof-of-concept of a new type of cathode for Li-air batteries that could overcome the current drawbacks to the technology, including a high potential gap (>1.2 V) V) causes severe energy efficiency and thermal management problems.

Lithium-sulfur and lithium air batteries have the potential to store 10 times more energy in the same space as the current state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries. However, the Li-metal electrodes in these next-generation batteries are especially prone to forming dendrites. Wood, Eric Kazyak, Alexander F.

Projected rates of fuel consumption improvement under different scenarios relative to past experience and the 2016 and 2025 CAFE standards. Vehicle and fuel data were then used to forecast future LDV fleet energy use and GHG emissions using two models, as well comparing different policy-driven scenarios. Source: NRC. Click to enlarge.
