Finding cost-effective ways to replace the graphite anode in commercial lithium-ion batteries is of great interest because it could lead to lighter batteries capable of storing more charge, via a 50% increase in energy density at the cell level. —Yang et al. for 500 charge cycles at room temperature. This is up from the 97.5%

2021 was a big year for energy-related news, what with the ongoing hunt for new forms of energy storage and cleaner if not carbon-free electricity and events and research that spotlighted the weak links in our power grid. No battery is perfect, however, so engineers keep pushing for new and improved ways to store those electrons.

Part of the answer to this question lies in the efficiency of EV batteries. Learn more about these batteries in this article, where we discuss the lifespan of different batteries and how to recycle them when the time comes. An EV doesn’t use only one Li-ion (lithium-ion) battery, though. Looking Back in the Mirror.
