Researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) and US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have developed a lithium-air battery with a solid electrolyte. The battery is rechargeable for 1000 cycles with a low polarization gap and can operate at high rates. —Kondori et al.

During discharge and charge in UHV, Li ions reversibly intercalate/de-intercalate into/from the Li x V 2 O 5 electrode. During discharge, Li ions meet with reduced oxygen on the surface of the Li x V 2 O 5 electrode forming Li 2 O 2 , which is decomposed upon recharge. The rechargeable Li?air

However, the limited performance of sodium-ion batteries has hindered large-scale application. Now, a research team from the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has developed a new electrolyte enabling a high-voltage sodium-ion battery with greatly extended longevity in laboratory tests.

Stanford researchers have developed a sodium-ion battery (SIB) that can store the same amount of energy as a state-of-the-art lithium ion, at substantially lower cost. Here, we reveal the origin of the limited electrochemical performance of Na 2 C 6 O 6 and provide an effective path to achieve reversible four-sodium storage.

Measurements also indicate that these new materials could yield a cathode that is extremely energy-efficient. However, transition metal fluorides, which contain the element fluorine plus one or more of the transition metals, such as iron and copper, have much higher ion-storage capacities than traditional cathodes.

Beginning in 2011 in the US, Europe and China, a test fleet of more than 1,000 BMW ActiveE vehicles, produced at BMW’s Leipzig plant, will provide further insights into the everyday use of the vehicle. With the BMW ActiveE developers are testing the storage cells and the storage electronics, which are to be installed later in the MCV.
