With the same calculations, NiMh offers 214 Wh/kg, and cobalt oxide Li-ion cells offer 414 Wh/kg. Current prominent battery systems such as Li-ion and NiMH demonstrate “ huge gaps ” between expected and practical performances, the researchers note. The proposed Ni-Li battery offers both a high cell voltage (3.49
