The working concept of I3 – /I – redox reaction in the aqueous Li-I 2 battery. A team from Japan’s RIKEN, led by Hye Ryung Byon, has developed a lithium-iodine (Li-I 2 ) battery system with a significantly higher energy density than conventional lithium-ion batteries. 500 km) [311 miles]. 500 km) [311 miles].

Low-cost 14V micro hybrid systems and full (strong) hybrid (i.e., Although NiMH is still the dominant battery in the high-voltage hybrid market, Li-ion technology started to take market share around 2009 and is expected to continually increase its share with time. Li-Ion batteries for strong hybrids are in short supply.

While the typical operating cost of a diesel vehicle is significantly higher than that of other drivetrains ($0.72/mile mile for diesel versus $0.60/mile mile for hybrid and $0.22/mile The Li-ion market is expected to reach 3.6

The Robust Affordable Next Generation EV-Storage (RANGE) program’s goal is to enable a 3X increase in electric vehicle range (from ~80 to ~240 miles per charge) with a simultaneous price reduction of > 1/3 (to ~ $30,000). If successful, these vehicles will provide near cost and range parity to gasoline-powered ICE vehicles, ARPA-E said.

There are companies that are reinventing the lead-acid battery to make it more competitive with lithium-ion and nickel metal hydride in terms of storage capacity versus weight, durability, and cold weather performance. In most conversions cost is about the same because of needless weight.
