New technique extends next-generation lithium metal batteries – Tech Xplore

Electric vehicles (EVs) hold great promise for our energy-efficient, sustainable future but among their limitations is the lack of a long-lasting, high energy density battery that reduces the need to fuel up on long-haul trips. The same is true for houses during blackouts and power grid failuressmall, efficient batteries able to power a home for more than one night without electricity don’t yet exist. Next-generation lithium batteries that offer lightweight, long-lasting, and low-cost energy storage…
