LG Chem has entered a four-year supply deal to provide lithium ion batteries to Eaton Corp. Representatives said the South Korean firm will first begin by supplying batteries for commercial HEVs and then expand its supply for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), which have batteries that can be recharged when connected to a power outlet.

We think a plug-in offering 40 miles of gas- and emissions-free driving like the Volt is the sweet spot for the majority of customers because nearly 80 percent of drivers can drive their daily commute and return home for an overnight recharge that avoids inconvenience for them and additional daytime load on the electric grid.

All of the designs use lithium-ion battery technology. Six of the seventeen EcoCAR teams, including Georgia Tech, Howard University, Michigan Tech University, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Texas Tech, and West Virginia University, have designed Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles which are constructed with a large lithium-ion battery.

A common denominator is the battery’s energy density : it is the amount of electrical energy per unit volume (or per unit weight) that a rechargeable battery can store. State-of-the-art energy density figures for lithium-ion batteries stand today near 700 Wh/l and 300 Wh/kg. Its capacity to hold ions has already maxed out.

In such applications, a huge 500+ kWh battery will be required to reliably deliver 350+ km of range on a single charge, and full recharging, even with 350kW ultra-fast chargers, will take hours. This becomes an even greater challenge in a depot situation, where megawatts of power are required.

A team of researchers at MIT led by Professor Yang Shao-Horn have found that gold-carbon (Au/C) and platinum-carbon (Pt/C) catalysts have a strong influence on the charge and discharge voltages of rechargeable lithium-air (Li-O 2 ) batteries, and thus enable a higher efficiency than simple carbon electrodes in these batteries.
