Over the past few decades, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have emerged as the dominant high-energy chemistry due to their uniquely high energy density while maintaining high power and cyclability at acceptable prices.
Furthermore, the development of high energy density lithium batteries can improve the balanced supply of intermittent, fluctuating, and uncertain renewable clean energy such as tidal energy, solar energy, and wind energy.
The theoretical energy density of lithium-ion batteries can be estimated by the specific capacity of the cathode and anode materials and the working voltage. Therefore, to improve energy density of LIBs can increase the operating voltage and the specific capacity. Another two limitations are relatively slow charging speed and safety issue.
The theoretical specific energy of Li-S batteries and Li-O 2 batteries are 2567 and 3505 Wh kg −1, which indicates that they leap forward in that ranging from Li-ion batteries to lithium–sulfur batteries and lithium–air batteries.
Through a systematic approach, suitable materials and elements for high-energy “beyond lithium-ion” batteries have been identified and correlated with cell-level developments in academia and industry, each of which have their advantages and limitations compared with LIBs as the benchmark.
Lithium-ion batteries have higher voltage than other types of batteries, meaning they can store more energy and discharge more power for high-energy uses like driving a car at high speeds or providing emergency backup power. Charging and recharging a battery wears it out, but lithium-ion batteries are also long-lasting.
