A new type of battery could finally make electric cars as convenient and cheap as gas ones. Solid-state batteries can use a wide range of chemistries, but a leading candidate for commercialization uses lithium metal. Quantumscape, for one, is focused on that technology and raised hundreds of millions in funding before going public in 2020.
“It’s a cost game,” Sekine says. Cathodes are typically one of the most expensive parts of a battery, and a type of cathode called NMC (nickel manganese cobalt) is the dominant variety in EV batteries today.
The development of the battery industry is crucial to the development of the whole NEV industry, and many countries have listed battery technologies as key targets for support at a national strategic level, which means that the NEV battery industry as a new industry has stepped on the stage of the development of this era. .
Actual cars powered by solid-state batteries seem to be perpetually on the horizon: Toyota’s original target date for commercializing them in the early 2020s has now slipped to the late 2020s, for example. When it comes to batteries, “Toyota has said a lot of things in the last ten years, none of which have come through,” cautions Ceder.
In the Special Project Implementation Plan for Promoting Strategic Emerging Industries “New Energy Vehicles” (2012–2015), power batteries and their management system are key implementation areas for breakthroughs. However, since 2016, the Chinese government hasn’t published similar policy support.
One, popular in laptops, uses lithium cobalt oxide, which produces relatively light but expensive batteries. Others, popular in many cars, use a mix of nickel and cobalt with aluminium or manganese as a stabilizer (NCA and NCM).
