Imagine an electric vehicle that charges in minutes, travels hundreds of miles on a single charge, and eliminates the risk of battery fires. This is the promise of solid-state batteries, a technology ...

Stellantis’ and Factorial Energy’s successful validation of automotive-sized solid-state battery cells with 375 Wh/kg energy density. Stellantis will incorporate Factorial’s solid-state batteries into ...

Electric vehicles are great, but they would be even better if they didn’t have to lug around a big and very heavy battery pack. Making EV batteries smaller, safer, and more power-dense are top ...

Imagine an electric vehicle that charges in minutes, travels over 1,200 kilometers on a single charge, and eliminates the risk of battery fires altogether. This isn’t science fiction, it’s the promise ...

Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days.

Researchers have discovered that the mixing of small particles between two solid electrolytes can generate an effect called a 'space charge layer,' an accumulation of electric charge at the interface ...

Researchers from Doshisha University, Japan, develop a novel quasi-solid-state lithium-ion battery (LIB) with non-flammable solid and liquid electrolytes. The battery has higher ionic conductivity, ...

Solid-state batteries, currently only found in small devices like hearing aids, pacemakers, and wearables, provide benefits in both power and safety. TDK Corporation in Japan, a component supplier to ...

The S2 costs up to 60 percent more, but it’s safer and can be cycled 1,000 times before battery life starts degrading. If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ...

It was easy to doubt solid-state batteries until someone finally got one into a car. For over a decade, various automakers have attempted to produce an EV with a solid-state battery instead of a ...

Applying high stack pressure is primarily done to address the mechanical failure issue of solid-state batteries. Here, the authors propose a mechanical optimization strategy involving elastic ...
