…“semi-solid” lithium ion battery technology, offering greater energy density and lower costs. It is the main technology provider for Freyr, Kyocera’s Enerezza product line, and being fine-tuned for use in…
…compared with lithium cells and lithium battery storage. Finally, we think there may be other applications of phase change materials that do not simply accomplish energy storage, but also reductions…
…do redox flow batteries compare to lithium ion batteries? Overall we think that for long-duration, grid-scale electricity storage, redox flow batteries are looking more economical than lithium ion, especially once…
Redox flow batteries have 6-24 hour durations and require 15-20c/kWh storage spreads. They will increasingly compete with lithium ion batteries in grid-scale storage. Does this unlock a step-change for peak…
…to rule them all. However, if you understand the thermodynamics of prime movers, you will inevitably conclude that the world is evolving towards solar, semi-conductors, electro-magnetic motors, lithium batteries and…
…offering ultra long-life battery storage, which could greatly surpass lithium ion economics in grid applications. A key challenge is the round-trip efficiency of redox flow batteries. For example, in other…
Supercapacitors may eclipse lithium ion batteries? This research report outlines the opportunity for supercapacitors in transport and industry. Their energy density is improving. Potential CO2 savings could surpass 1bn tons…
This data-file models the economics of recycling spent lithium ion batteries, taking in waste cells at end-of-life, and recovering materials such as cobalt, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminium, lithium and steel….
