High voltages in Li-ion batteries have allowed it to capture the electric vehicle, mobile electronics and grid-storage markets. Li-ion batteries contain elements which are geopolitically sensitive and not common toContinue Reading
India has no lithium deposits that could be used to manufacture conventional lithium-ion battery cells. But as India is looking to migrate to electric vehicles (EV) in a big wayContinue Reading
For years, the Holy Grail of battery research has been making solid-state battery cells that replace the liquid electrolyte in conventional cells with solid materials. Solid-state batteries are believed toContinue Reading
There are chemical similarities between Lithium and Sodium that suggest sodium-ion batteries could be a low cost — and environmentally friendly — alternative to lithium ion batteries. There’s only oneContinue Reading
Researchers at the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium say they have discovered a new material they call LTPS — whose chemical composition is LiTi2(PS4)3 — that has the highestContinue Reading
One of India’s largest chemical manufacturing companies — Tata Chemicals — announced plans to set up a lithium-ion battery plant in the western state of Gujarat. Tata Chemicals is believedContinue Reading
Australian mining company Neometals has entered into a deal with Indian power conglomerate Manikaran Power to jointly fund a feasibility study to set up India’s first lithium refinery. The refinery,Continue Reading
24M, an innovative battery company, announced it has shipped the first semi-solid state lithium-ion batteries to commercial customers. The new semi-solid state battery technology developed by the company features anContinue Reading
