Also on the list of five is the arrival of advanced batteries, including air batteries (e.g., Lithium air), but targeted initially at small devices. Kyoto University and IBM Research - Tokyo have developed a system that can simulate a broad range of urban transport situations involving millions of vehicles.

Lithium-air batteries, with a theoretical gravimetric energy density of ?3500 3500 Wh/kg, are of great interest as next-generation energy storage systems that would enable, among other things, much longer range in EVs. Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are based on a pair of intercalation electrodes. —Lim et al.

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a working laboratory demonstrator of a lithium-oxygen battery which has very high energy density, is more than 90% efficient, and, to date, can be recharged more than 2000 times, showing how several of the problems holding back the development of these devices could be solved.
