Longer-lasting, higher-performing batteries would help spark EV sales, and a new solid state lithium-sulfur formula could do the trick.
Toyota turns to an unlikely ally in its quest for a new solid-state battery to help accelerate the end of gasmobiles.
The news in the battery world this week involves advancements in aluminum-ion and lithium-sulfur technologies.
The US Department of Defense is finally leveling up its interest in electric vehicles, and Canoo is front and center.
Bye Aerospace is an extremely busy electric aviation company developing the future of our urban air mobility (UAM) world. It has two electric airplanes (eCTOL) and is working on an electric vertical take-off & landing (eVTOL) project with Uber Elevate. But that’s not all. It is also partnering with another two companies focusing on pre‐crash sensing technologies, parachute ballistic recovery systems, landing gear‐airframe crashworthy structural concepts, high-energy absorbing seats, and advanced restraints.
Researchers find that EV battery range and performance could be improved with the help of carbon derived from the loofah or sponge gourd.
The startup company Solid Power could be on track to produce a solid state lithium-sulfur EV battery that outperforms lithium-ion and costs less, too.
Lithium-ion is the gold standard for EV batteries today, but sodium-ion and lithium-sulfur could offer lighter, cheaper energy storage alternatives.
