Solid-state battery cell sets records, can offer over 1,300 mile range
This new solid-state battery cell claims to set industry records, could offer over 1,300 mile range
If this isn't just corporate hype, this could be great for making smaller batteries, hopefully less resource intensive.
Oh another huge groundbreaking battery technology that will very soon change the world!!!!!
Let me just log that with the 8436 times I've read that in the last 2 decades.
Over the last two decades battery technology has increased DRASTICALLY. So the cynicism isnt entirely deserved.
It has; but afaik it has been more through incremental improvements rather than huge technological leaps.
I know battery tech is progressing and lithium ion is way advanced, but every month I see a bait article claiming they are revolutionizing the tech and this new technology will DOUBLE or TRIPLE the liion battery... Especially the solid state battery articles. It's always bait
If I had a nickel for every groundbreaking battery technology discovered, I could make my own groundbreaking discovery! Just trust me this time
You'd certainly have an adequate supply of nickel for the required metallurgy...
Still waiting on those miracle molten salt batteries that are going to revolutionize long term energy storage.
Some of those were dangerous as hell and we won't see them in consumer use ever, unless somebody wants a very expensive frag grenade.
Don't trust reports, or anything really, coming out of China at face value. Product in hand, undoctored video proof, lab tests done by a trusted group.
A solid-state battery developer in China has unveiled a new cell that could help change the game for electric mobility.
Oh yeah? Again?
Tailan did not mention any specific plans for passenger vehicle integration yet, but did state its latest generation of all-solid-state battery cells are vehicle grade. If the company is able to scale this technology large enough for consumer vehicles while keeping prices down...
Ah, so more vaporware. Same as usual. Come find me when these technologies actually exist.
We'll do fine with 250-300 mile range if charging infrastructure is improved. Use further battery breakthroughs for reducing weight, not increasing range.
Though the possibility of fully electric airplanes is exciting.
Increased capacity is reduced weight since now you need less battery for came range. Although I doubt these claims. Improvements in technology are usually marginal, not 5x or more.
If the company is able to scale this technology large enough for consumer vehicles while keeping prices down ...
They probably won't care about keeping costs down if they are developing 1300 miles range batteries that's gonna be for industrial and military applications. Maybe some very high end consumer use.
just 3 to 5 years guys....
If the company is able to scale this technology large enough for consumer vehicles[…]
Big ask
Why? Just fill the trunk with 18650 cells and off you go.
This will be a great pair to my quantum graphene notebook!
Made in PRC, I'll pass.
I'm carefully optimistic. A new "battery tech breakthrough" is reported on every few months without anything coming out of it, but solid state batteries has been talked about for a while and might be the one to actually take over for LiPo (in some circumstances, at least). The tech looks promising, and I'm looking forward to seeing how this technology matures.
This is more than a "breakthrough" IMO. Manufacturers have been eyeing and researching solid states for a long time now. It's not just a lab toy.
And according to the article, some of these are going on sale later this year.
