Lithium-ion batteries lead the EV industry, but solid-state batteries promise greater energy density, improved safety, and environmental advantages. However, they’ve largely remained experimental—until now. Chinese automaker Chery has announced plansContinue Reading
Our love affair with solar power has birthed an unexpected challenge – the “duck curve.” As solar panels become more affordable, midday electricity production soars, but demand remains low. ThisContinue Reading
From 2027, the EU is implementing a game-changer for batteries: digital passports. These mandatory documents, required for new batteries exceeding 2 kWh (traction, two-wheeled vehicles, and industrial), aim to createContinue Reading
The sudden interest in sodium ion batteries is due to China’s dominance in the lithium ion battery market, where it controls the supply and processing. China also has a strongContinue Reading
A recent study shows that owners of electric vehicles drive fewer miles compared to owners of gas vehicles, resulting in less emission reduction from EVs. Researchers at George Washington UniversityContinue Reading
One of the most potential high-energy and low-cost energy storage devices for the next generation of large-scale applications is sodium-metal batteries (SMBs). Uncontrolled dendrite formation, which penetrates the battery’s separatorContinue Reading
With the widespread use of electronic gadgets and electric cars, sustainable battery materials are in high demand, and sodium ion batteries (NIBs) have garnered international interest for next-generation energy storageContinue Reading
Tesla purchased Maxwell Technologies, a business that specialized in sophisticated ultracapacitors, three years ago. But Tesla purchased the firm for their dry cathode capability, which was required to manufacture theContinue Reading
