USA increasing domestic lithium battery research and manufacturing
BMW sourcing lithium from Argentinian salt lakes
BMW funding research into sustainable lithium production
Are the “perfect” lithium air batteries the enemy of lithium ion batteries
Routinely some news makes the rounds touting some far off future battery technology as the savior of electric cars. The headline vaporously screams we’ll be driving cars powered by graphene, or lithium air, or compressed air, or something or other. There are several ways to think about this and the…
Review: Bottled Lightning, super-batteries, electric cars, and the new Lithium Economy
At the core of electric cars is the electricity storage technology being used. Most commonly electricity is stored in chemical batteries, which store electricity as chemical bonds in a soup of specific elements. The key thing which is enabling the wave of electric vehicle advances is advances in battery pack…
