Automotive battery production currently releases around half a dozen tonnes of CO2. This is why, in comparison to a conventional lithium-ion battery, solid-state battery technology has the potential to increase energy density, reduce charge time, and make it more stable when it comes to thermal runaway. Remember electrolysis?

The Current Policies Scenario assumes no new policies are added to those in place as of mid-2011, and is used as a basis for comparison with the New POlicies Scenario. This trend is driven by major improvements in fuel economy in many countries, especially in the largest car markets in the United States, China, Europe and Japan.
