Their low cost and ability to start the engine at cold temperatures sets them apart in conventional and basic micro-hybrid vehicles, and as auxiliary batteries in all other automotive applications, according to the report. Other battery technologies (nickel-metal hydride, lead-based etc.) Lithium-ion batteries. Resources.

Lithium ion battery powered electric vehicles are a reality, and with this comes much public and academic speculation concerning the importance of lithium availability and market price. While there are many other reasons to pursue different battery chemistries, access to lithium resources is not one of them, Whitacre said.

Only about 3% currently is generated from wind, solar, hydroelectric and other renewable sources, with most of the electricity produced in the United States currently coming from coal- and natural gas-fired power plants, followed by nuclear according to data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). —Charles Barnhart.

To maximize the benefit of the open structure, the researchers needed to use ions that fit; hydrated potassium ions proved to be a much better fit compared with other hydrated ions such as sodium and lithium. Potassium will just zoom in and zoom out, so you can have an extremely high-power battery. —Yi Cui.

In laboratory tests, the engineers found that their membrane reliably controlled charging and discharging in batteries powered by ions of lithium, sodium and potassium. They connected batteries to an LED light, programming the holes to open and close in precise patterns. Travis Herya and Sundaresan (2016).
