New materials could lead to safer and more sustainable batteries

Solid-state lithium batteries have the potential to transform energy storage by offering higher energy density and improved safety compared to today’s lithium-ion batteries. However, their limited lifespan remains a major challenge. To address this, researchers at Luleå University of Technology have developed new materials that can significantly extend battery life.

“Our new materials can be used in cathode and electrolyte to extend battery lifespan and support the development of more environmentally friendly energy storage,” says Jiajia Li, who recently completed her PhD in Energy Engineering at Luleå University of Technology.
