As they work to solve the mysteries of battery degradation, reveal the true environmental toll of battery production and disposal, and improve the performance of next-generation batteries, battery researchers are hoping their advances can change the world – and our daily lives – for the better.
As the field of battery technology continues to progress, it is evident that future research directions should emphasize and explore novel materials, their synthesis methods, and their impact on enhancing battery performance and sustainability.
A major trend is to replace critical elements in the battery by more sustainable solutions, while still improving the properties of the battery. In general, the following development trends can be noticed: • Replacement of critical elements in the cathode by more sustainable elements with a higher natural abundancy.
Although they’ve been a familiar technology for decades, batteries are set to be an important technology of the future. Inside all batteries are electrochemical cells that store chemical energy with the potential to be converted into electrical energy.
Driven by the technical progress and the development of electrical applications in the 19th and 20th century, electrical power sources moved more and more into the focus of research and a series of rechargeable (i.e., “secondary”) and non-rechargeable (i.e., “primary”) batteries was developed, see Figure 1.
See all authors The development of new batteries has historically been achieved through discovery and development cycles based on the intuition of the researcher, followed by experimental trial and error—often helped along by serendipitous breakthroughs.
