Are lithium-ion batteries getting better?
Cold fusion is eternally 20 years away, and new battery technology is eternally five years away. That skepticism is understandable when a new battery design promises a revolution, but it risks missing the fact that batteries have gotten better. Lithium-ion batteries have reigned for a while now—that’s true.
Why are we still stuck in lithium-ion technology?
And there are a few reasons why we’re still stuck in that lithium-ion technology. A new article from the MIT Technology Review notes that our top researchers have been busily working quite hard on developing the technology to replace our current lithium-ion batteries.
Could lithium-air batteries make a big jump in energy density?
Researchers have also long been chasing lithium-air batteries that could realize a huge jump in energy density. And beyond lithium, there are other entirely different chemistries in development out there. At some point, one of them should click for one application or another.
Do hydrogen molecules interfere with lithium ions in a battery?
The study identifies how hydrogen molecules interfere with lithium ions in the battery, offering insights that could lead to more sustainable and cost-effective battery technology. Batteries lose capacity over time, which is why older cell phones run out of power more quickly. This common phenomenon, however, is not completely understood.
Are electric cars stuck with lithium-ion batteries?
The bad news is that this symposium has been running for nine years straight and we’re still stuck with lithium-ion batteries. If you’re wondering what’s sort of keeping electric cars in a liminal holding pattern in the auto industry, this is a big part of it.
Can lithium-ion batteries be recycled?
The nascent art of lithium-ion battery recycling is also sure to mature and expand, improving the sustainability of these batteries by recovering and resetting their chemical building blocks. Adopt cold-fusion-like skepticism of any of these future-looking statements as you please, but today’s batteries aren’t those of 20 or even 10 years ago.
