In the pursuit of next-generation battery technologies that go beyond the limitations of lithium-ion, it is important to look into the future and predict the trajectory of these advancements. By doing so, we can grasp the transformational potential these technologies hold for the global energy scenario.
Corporations and universities are rushing to develop new manufacturing processes to cut the cost and reduce the environmental impact of building batteries worldwide.
From more efficient production to entirely new chemistries, there's a lot going on. The race is on to generate new technologies to ready the battery industry for the transition toward a future with more renewable energy. In this competitive landscape, it’s hard to say which companies and solutions will come out on top.
