In 2001, a team of engineers at a then-obscure R&D company called AC Propulsion quietly began a groundbreaking experiment. The researchers estimated that, if applied to the task of generating electricity, all of the engines in the U.S. They wanted to see whether an electric vehicle could feed electricity back to the grid.

The traditional design paradigm for Li-ion battery cathodes has been to create compounds in which the amount of extractable Li + is well balanced with an oxidizable transition metal (TM) species (such as Mn, Fe, Co or Ni) to provide the charge-compensating electrons, all contained in an oxide or sulfide host.

The breakthrough could revolutionize electric car battery technology and pave the way for ultra-fast charging electric vehicles in as little as two years. The discovery came when MIT researchers Byoungwoo Kang and Gerbrand Ceder found out how to get a common lithium compound to release and take up lithium ions in a matter of seconds.
