This pioneering battery exhibited higher energy density value up to 130 Wh kg −1 (gravimetric) and 280 Wh L −1 (volumetric). The Table 1 illustrates the energy densities of initial rechargeable LIBs introduced commercially, accompanied by the respective company names .
Higher energy density batteries can store more energy in a smaller volume, which makes them lighter and more portable. For instance, lithium-ion batteries are appropriate for a wide range of applications such as electric vehicles, where size and weight are critical factors .
Energy density of batteries experienced significant boost thanks to the successful commercialization of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) in the 1990s. Energy densities of LIB increase at a rate less than 3% in the last 25 years . Practically, the energy densities of 240–250 Wh kg −1 and 550-600 Wh L −1 have been achieved for power batteries.
To date, lithium ion batteries are considered as a leading energy storage and conversion technology, ensuring a combination of high energy and power densities and prolonged cycle life. A critical point for elaboration of high energy density secondary Li batteries is the use of high specific capacity positive and negative electrodes.
Rechargeable batteries (secondary batteries) are now ubiquitous in the modern world. Yet, current battery technologies are by no means ideal, and significant improvements in electrochemical energy storage technologies would be of great interest to a broad community of users.
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.
