lithium-ion batteries

As connected devices grow smaller, smarter, and more demanding, one critical component has struggled to keep pace: the battery. But a breakthrough in solid-state energy storage may soon change that. France-based ITEN, a company…

HACKENSACK, NEW JERSEY, USA, August 26, 2024 "On May 31st, Emerging Power participated in a webinar discussing ""State-of-the-Art Lithium Ion Battery Packs for E-Bikes,"" emphasizing the company’s commitment to innovation and safety in…

An RMIT University team of researchers and industry collaborators has invented a recyclable battery that won't catch fire or explode. Traditional lithium-ion batteries are currently the norm, but they come with some issues, including…

Battery manufacturer Northvolt manufactures a sodium-ion battery that is competitive with traditional chemistries. The company claims its battery is safer, cheaper, and more sustainable than most batteries on the market containing nickel…

by Jon Gabay, engineer We are so manipulated in our society. Others dictate the technologies we will use and depend on without regard to ramifications. Poor planning and hip-shot reactions lead to wasted time and money, and the goals…

We use lightweight, high-capacity lithium-ion batteries in our personal electronics. These conventional lithium-ion batteries use organic electrolytes that are highly flammable and have caused fires or explosions. Researchers are…

Let's face it; charging an EV takes more than a little time. Drivers want to charge and go quickly, but with current technology, speeding up the process can cause damage. Now, scientists have designed super-fast charging methods for…

I love old films. When reading about Georgia Tech's recent announcement regarding their combination of rubber material with an innovative 3D structure to replace liquid electrolytes in batteries, an old mid-1960s film, The Graduate, came to…

MIT Researchers developed a weavable, rechargeable ultra-long fiber lithium-ion battery that may have a future in making 3D-printed batteries in any shape. The world’s longest flexible fiber battery, 140 meters long, was built to…

Sometimes making the parts necessary for green technologies can have dire effects on human wellbeing. The cobalt used in lithium-ion batteries in Africa's Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is a good example. Researchers led by…
