The batteries propelling electric vehicles have quickly become the most crucial component, and expense, for a new generation of cars and trucks. They represent not only the potential for cleaner transportation but also broad shifts in geopolitical power, industrial dominance, and environmental protection.
High-performing lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are strongly considered as power sources for electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which require rational selection of cell chemistry as well as deliberate design of the module and pack [1 – 3].
In its simplest form, an EV battery is made up of cells—small units that store energy. These cells are assembled into larger packs to deliver the high voltage required to power an electric vehicle. But how exactly does an EV battery work?
These batteries are expected to remain dominant in EVs for the foreseeable future thanks to plunging costs and improvements in performance. Right now, electric-car batteries typically weigh around 1,000 pounds, cost around $15,000 to manufacture, and have enough power to run a typical home for a few days.
Electric vehicles are hitting the mainstream, but the technology powering them is far from stagnant. We’re on the cusp of even greater innovations that promise to revolutionize the EV landscape. For starters, solid-state batteries are emerging as the next big thing.
Then there might be improved lithium-ion batteries, maybe using silicon anodes or rocksalt cathodes, for mid-range vehicles, or perhaps solid-state lithium batteries will take over that class. Then there might be LiS or even lithium–air cells for high-end cars — or flying taxis. But there’s a lot of work yet to be done.
