Lithium ion batteries were first commercialized in the 1990’s and will most likely continue to be with us for some years to come but there are alternatives that are cheaper, more fire resistant and last longer. Another chemistry that is coming onstream is sodium ion. million kilometers.

Solid-state, lithium-sulfur, sodium batteries—would all of these still be using graphite in the anode? There’s also pre-lithiation of the anode which is kind of preloading it with lithium ions. Sodium batteries, for example, may have great cold-weather performance. Charged : What about future battery technologies?

It can take five or more years to get a lithium mine up and going, but operations can only start after it has secured the required permits , a process which itself can take years. Mining the raw materials, of course, assumes that there is sufficient refining capability to process them, which outside of China , is limited.
