The leading Indian EV battery materials firm Epsilon Advanced Materials plans to meet the graphite anode demand of 1 million in made-in-the-US EVs per year by 2030.
Researchers in China claim to have made important breakthroughs that could help make solid state batteries commercially viable.
Tennessee will play a key role in the domestic EV battery supply chain, as the host of two new factories slated to produce synthetic graphite in bulk.
Cumulative battery and EV supply chain investment in North America grew to more than $250 billion by the end of 2023. Investment in battery and EV supply chains increased rapidly after the passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) on November 15, 2021, and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) on … [continued]
Researchers at Tohoku University have unearthed a means to stabilize lithium or sodium depositions in rechargeable batteries, helping keep their metallic structure intact. The discovery prevents potential battery degradation and short circuiting, and paves the way for higher energy-density metal-anode batteries. Courtesy of Tohoku University Scientists are ever-seeking to develop … [continued]
It sounds as if the electric aviation news industry has somewhat tapered down, giving a chance for other competing electric mobility industries to make it into the limelight. But that doesn’t mean that the electric aviation industry is sitting idly either. In fact, Sion Power just announced a “breakthrough” in its Location Lithium battery chemistry.
A new type of anode material (potentially replacing conventional graphite anodes) has been developed by researchers at UNIST. The new anode design could “hold the key to greatly improving the performance of commercial lithium-ion batteries” through weight reduction and increased lifespan, according to those involved in the work. A press release from UNIST … [continued]
A low-cost approach to fabricating nanoporous silicon — a potentially highly useful material for next-generation anode material in batteries, owing to assumed greater capacity and lowered operating voltage — has been developed by researchers at Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, the University of Science and Technology of China, … [continued]
