IBM Almaden Researchers Say Li-Air Batteries Offer Promise for Transition to Electrified Transportation, But Face Challenges and Multi-Decade Development Cycle
Four different architectures of Li-air batteries, which all assume the use of lithium metal as the anode. At present, automotive propulsion batteries are just beginning the transition from nickel metal hydride to Li-ion batteries, after nearly 35 years of research and development on the latter. Click to enlarge. Basics.

Are Hybrids Shockingly Risky?
Wires are therefore enclosed in insulated and protective casing while the battery pack is sealed in a metal shell, isolated from electric current. The shell is treated to avoid corrosion and rust, and even if water breached it, nickel-metal hydride battery packs use maintenance free, sealed cells. by 2015.

National Research Council Study Finds That Available Technologies Can Result in Significant Fuel Savings for Passenger Vehicles Over the Next 15 Years, But at Higher Purchase Prices for Consumers
When the cost and safety issues associated with them are resolved, lithium-ion batteries will replace nickel-metal-hydride batteries in hybrid electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. The report focuses on fuel consumption because energy savings are directly related to the amount of fuel used. Resources.

  • Brad Berman/HybridCars.com's Lithium Battery Report
    Keep in mind that lithium and hydrogen are energy carriers, not fuels. With only one proton and chemical weight of the three, it's the lightest element, which makes it an obvious candidate for use as an energy carrier. The company is working with Department of Energy on the development of lithium ion batteries for hybrid vehicles.
