Berkeley Lab team demonstrates high-rate, high-energy, long-life Li/S battery in the lab; looking for industry partners

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have demonstrated in the laboratory a lithium-sulfur (Li/S) battery that has more than twice the specific energy of lithium-ion batteries, and that lasts for more than 1,500 cycles of charge-discharge with minimal decay of the battery’s capacity.

Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

Cars That Think

As she drives her electric vehicle to her mother’s house, Monique’s battery gauge indicates that it’s time to reenergize. The battery in her EV is a variation on the flow battery , a design in which spent electrolyte is replaced rather than recharged. A battery that mitigates these problems is DARPA’s objective.
