The biggest concerns — and major motivation for researchers and startups to focus on new battery technologies — are related to safety, specifically fire risk, and the sustainability of the materials used in the production of lithium-ion batteries, namely cobalt, nickel and magnesium.
But new battery technologies are being researched and developed to rival lithium-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability. Many of these new battery technologies aren’t necessarily reinventing the wheel when it comes to powering devices or storing energy.
We provide an in-depth analysis of emerging battery technologies, including Li-ion, solid-state, metal-air, and sodium-ion batteries, in addition to recent advancements in their safety, including reliable and risk-free electrolytes, stabilization of electrode–electrolyte interfaces, and phase-change materials.
Advancements in battery technology The term “advanced batteries” refers to cutting-edge battery technologies that are currently being researched and tested in an effort to become foreseeable future large-scale commercial batteries for EVs.
Because lithium-ion batteries are able to store a significant amount of energy in such a small package, charge quickly and last long, they became the battery of choice for new devices. But new battery technologies are being researched and developed to rival lithium-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability.
Battery safety is a difficult concept to quantify. For a typical end user, safety is often a binary quality; either their battery has operated without incident, or it did not. Generally, users do not want to consider the battery at all in general operation; the best battery is the one that simply works without giving it much thought.
