Speeding up extreme fast-charging capability in lithium-ion batteries

Society Transitions Towards Renewable Energy and Electric Batteries

Society Transitions Towards Renewable Energy and Electric Batteries

Current society is transitioning en masse from fossil fuels to renewable resources and electric batteries. Despite the urgency to switch to greener methods, core challenges related to efficiency and sustainability pose a hurdle to overcome. For instance, the mass market adoption of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries for use in electric vehicles is being hindered by their slow charging speeds.

The automobile industry seeks out a set of features in batteries, dubbed the "holy grail," that would allow for an efficient switch to electric vehicles. These features include "extreme" fast charging (wherein 80% of the battery is charged within 10 min), high energy density, and cycle life.

As society continues to transition towards renewable energy, companies are working hard to make sure that the electric vehicles used are efficient, sustainable, and durable. Efforts to improve the features of the batteries used in electric vehicles could make this transition smoother.
