Researchers show clean solid–electrolyte/electrode interfaces double capacity of solid-state Li batteries

Green Car Congress

Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech), Tohoku University, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, and Nippon Institute of Technology, have demonstrated by experiment that a clean electrolyte/electrode interface is key to realizing high-capacity solid-state lithium batteries (SSLBs). O 4 interfaces.

Roskill forecasts Li-ion battery demand to increase more than ten-fold by 2029 to >1,800GWh

Green Car Congress

Roskill forecasts that Li-ion battery demand will increase more than ten-fold by 2029, reaching in excess of 1,800GWh capacity. In the late 2020s, Li-ion technologies could see increasing competition from other battery technologies, though Li-ion cells are expected to maintain their dominant position, Roskill said.

Stanford researchers develop new electrolysis system to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen

Green Car Congress

Dai said his lab showed proof-of-concept with a demo, but the researchers will leave it up to manufacturers to scale and mass produce the design. Water splitting with electricity—electrolysis—is a simple and old idea: a power source connects to two electrodes placed in water. to 1 A/cm 2 ) over 1,000 h. —Hongjie Dai.

Researchers call for integration of materials sustainability into battery research; the need for in situ monitoring

Green Car Congress

We need new storage technologies if more renewables are to be used on the electrical grid; similarly, the electrification of transport requires much cheaper and longer-lasting batteries. Under such a scenario, the production of Li-ion batteries should expand hugely over the years to come, hence reviving the issue of finite Li reserves.
