While other researchers have looked at stabilizing the spinel, Amine said, Argonne looked at replacing the carbon with a lithium titanate material. Argonne, in collaboration with Hanyang University, developed a nano-porous, micron-size LiFePO 4 particle that has high packing density and high volumetric energy density.

Although lithium-ion cell and pack costs are expected to fall sharply by 2020, they are unlikely to drop enough to support widespread adoption of fully electric vehicles without a major breakthrough in battery technology, according to a new study by The Boston Consulting Group (BCG). million will be fully electric, 1.5 BCG report.
