A solid-state battery is a rechargeable energy storage system similar in overall structure and operation to the more familiar lithium-ion battery. The two differ in that a lithium-ion battery contains ...

Working on car electrical systems used to be easy. The battery simply provided power for the car’s starter motor when starting or to run the small number of accessories when the engine wasn’t running.

A firm based in Alameda has unveiled a battery with an injectable liquid to solid electrolyte. Anthro Energy's Proteus electrolyte technology is claimed to be a game-changer for batteries. The company ...

It has taken years of toiling away in their labs, but developers of lithium-ion batteries made with solid electrolytes—known as solid-state batteries or SSBs—are moving toward commercialization of the ...

A computational study published in the Journal of Molecular Liquids makes important contributions to the development of new, safe, high-performance batteries by investigating compounds that can be ...

The world of the internal combustion engine will sadly, but very necessarily, come to a close at some point in many of our lifetimes. Hybrids and electric vehicles are becoming more affordable and ...

Conventional battery: Ordinary batteries use at least one solid active material. In the lead-acid battery shown here, the electrodes are solid plates immersed in a liquid electrolyte. Solid materials ...

The Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory has exclusively licensed battery electrolyte technology to Safire Technology Group. The collection of five patented technologies are designed ...
