EnerVenue If you don’t discharge and then recharge them all the way, lithium-ion batteries can last for thousands of charge-discharge cycles. Now imagine a battery that can last through tens of thousands of charge-discharge cycles. NASA Battery Tech to Deliver for the Grid EnerVenue’s nickel-hydrogen battery cells are 1.8

A team of researchers at MIT and Tsinghua University has developed a high-rate, high-capacity and long-lived anode for Li-ion batteries comprising a yolk-shell nanocomposite of aluminum core (30 nm in diameter) and TiO 2 shell (~3 nm in thickness), with a tunable interspace (Al@TiO 2 , or ATO). Earlier post.). Capacity decay is only.

The breakthrough could revolutionize electric car battery technology and pave the way for ultra-fast charging electric vehicles in as little as two years. The discovery came when MIT researchers Byoungwoo Kang and Gerbrand Ceder found out how to get a common lithium compound to release and take up lithium ions in a matter of seconds.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. One wonders if the recent headway at MIT in building lithium ion cells using ?virus? The car is expected to cost around $40,000. Thats right.
