Carbon is seen as an attractive potential cathode material for aprotic (non-aqueous) Lithium-air batteries, which are themselves of great interest for applications such as in electric vehicles because of the cells’ high theoretical specific energy. For their study, they cycled carbon cathodes in Li?O —Thotiyl et al.

optioned a PNNL-developed method for building titanium oxide and carbon structures that greatly improve the performance of lithium-ion batteries. The new material stores twice as much electricity at high charge/discharge rates as current lithium ion batteries, and creates increased battery capacity and a longer cycle life.

For the longer term, (2017-2027) while “beyond Li-ion” battery chemistries such as lithium-sulfur, magnesium-ion, zinc-air, and lithium-air, offer the potential of significantly greater energy densities, breakthrough innovation will be required for these new battery technologies to enter the PEV market, according to DOE.
