Can ceramic materials be used in a solid state EV battery?

Though it may seem counterintuitive, the idea of deploying ceramic materials in a solid state EV battery has crossed the CleanTechnica radar here and there over the years, and it has caught the attention of the Energy Department, too.

What materials are used in ceramic batteries?

This means that no critical raw materials, such as lithium or cobalt are used. High-purity aluminimum oxide is used for the ceramic solid-state electrolyte, and common salt and nickel are predominantly used as the cathode medium. In addition, these ceramic batteries are fire- and explosion-proof.

Can a ceramic solid state EV battery reduce manufacturing costs?

In 2017 ARPA-E awarded almost $5 million to the University of Maryland for a five-year research project, aimed at deploying a high tech ceramic material in an EV battery. Among other advantages, ARPA-E took note of the potential for UMD’s new ceramic solid state EV battery to reduce manufacturing costs.

What is a solid state EV battery?

For those of you new to the topic, the electric vehicle of today runs on lithium-ion batteries, which use a liquid electrolyte. Solid state EV batteries are a new thing. They replace the liquid with a semi-solid gel or a true solid material (see more CleanTechnica coverage here ).

What are solid-state lithium batteries (SSBs)?

“ Solid-state lithium batteries (SSBs) offer an energy-dense and safer substitute to the traditional lithium-ion batteries prevalent in electric vehicles (EV) and various portable devices,” notes the US Department of Energy.

Who makes cerenergy® batteries?

The Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS and the Altech Group establish the joint venture Altech Batteries GmbH to commercialize the ceramic solid-state battery cerenergy® developed at Fraunhofer IKTS. In the coming years, a cerenergy® battery factory is to be built at the Schwarze Pumpe site in Saxony.
