LLTO anode material for safe batteries with a long cycle life

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Jilin University in Changchun/China have investigated a highly promising anode material for future high-performance batteries: lithium lanthanum titanate with a perovskite crystal structure (LLTO). Cell voltage and storage capacity ultimately determine the energy density of a battery.

Maersk to pilot 600 kWh containerized battery system on container ship

Green Car Congress

A containerized 600 kWh marine battery system will be installed in a trial on board the Maersk Cape Town in December 2019 to improve vessel performance and reliability while reducing CO 2 emissions. Propelling marine vessels with battery power alone is still years away from being a technically- and economically-viable option, Maersk says.
