The report— Cost and performance of EV batteries —describes the current state of development and cost of batteries, before mapping the future cost and performance of lithium-ion batteries out to 2030. It results in a higher cost per kWh for a PHEV compared to pure battery electric vehicle.

VTO-funded research has reduced the cost of advanced batteries by 75% since 2008, and nearly every plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) on the road today uses VTO-developed battery technology. DOE is working to lower the cost of the power electronics and motors in an EV to $7/kW by 2022 from $30/kW in 2012.

DEM expects to deliver these next-generation materials with cathode capacities in the range of 280 - 300 mAh g -1 and anode capacities in the range of 1,000 - 1,500 mAh g -1 , Nelson and Klanecky said. Much further out (Horizon 3) are efforts on Lithium-air batteries and other potential chemistries. —David Klanecky.

For example the volumetric energy density of lithium-ion batteries has increased eightfold since 2008, from around 55 watt-hours/litre to 450 watt-hours/litre in 2020. At the same time the cost of lithium-ion battery packs declined 87% between 2008 and 2021. This could potentially lead to electric cars with a much longer range.

The ideal battery will be made of low-cost, plentiful materials that are lightweight and flexible enough to allow vehicle design innovations. It will charge in minutes, provide longer driving distance to overcome range anxiety , last indefinitely, be safe to operate — and accelerate widespread EV adoption. Is the vision possible?

Reducing the cost of electric drive systems from $30/kW to $8/kW. When these goals are met, the levelized cost of an all-electric vehicle with a 280-mile range will be comparable to that of an ICE vehicle of similar size. That would take a 55 kW system cost of $1,650 down to $440 and increase power density from 1.1

Toyota has also ramped up development on new battery technologies such as solid state and lithium air, as well as devoting resources focused on chemistries beyond lithium, such as magnesium and other low-valence materials. Today, patience and a long vision are still the cost of admission.
