LLTO anode material for safe batteries with a long cycle life

Green Car Congress

Anodes of lithium-ion batteries consist of a current collector and an active material applied to it that stores energy in the form of chemical bonds. Among the alternative active materials, lithium titanate oxide (LTO) has already been commercialized. In most cases, graphite is used as the active material.

Plug In India

NMC batteries can store upto 300 Wh/kg, and 350 Wh/kg seems doable in the near future. LFP, in contrast, currently stores about 140 Wh/kg – with a theoretical storage upper ceiling of 160 Wh/kg. The real killer is going to be solid state batteries which can have energy storage densities of up to 500 Wh/kg.
