Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are rechargeable batteries that store energy by moving lithium ions between the negative (anode) and positive (cathode) electrodes. They are the most popular rechargeable battery chemistry used today. Lithium-ion batteries are considered a sustainable means as they use components already present in nature and do not have a significant impact on the environment. To shed light upon the sustainability of lithium-ion batteries, we bring erudite notions from Dr Yan Zhao, CTO and Co-founder, Breathe Battery Technologies; Dinesh Arjun, CEO & Co-founder, Raptee Energy; P.A.Guru Punghavan, Chief Executive Officer, Re-Astra; Pankaj Sharma, Co-Founder & Director, Log9 Materials.
R&D Investments to Improve Energy Density and Charging Speeds of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Significant improvements in lithium-ion battery energy density and charging speeds offer enormous promise for revolutionising electric vehicles (EVs) and electronics applications. Increasing energy density provides greater range and longer battery life in electronic gadgets, while faster charging implies less downtime and greater user convenience. To achieve these objectives, battery materials and design improvements, such as developing high-capacity anodes and cathodes, solid-state electrolytes, and sophisticated thermal management systems, are required. Furthermore, the combination of artificial intelligence and smart charging infrastructure has the potential to optimise charging operations, enhancing battery longevity and overall performance. These developments not only encourage environmentally friendly transportation choices but also empower our increasingly electrified society by making EVs more accessible and electronics more efficient.
