This 1977 GM Electrovette with nickel-zinc energy storage technology would look even better with a new solid state battery under the hood.
The latest breakthrough is another Nazar-JCESR mashup. This one involves a new chemistry for a solid-state battery.
As described by JCESR, the typical solid-state battery chemistry focuses on sulfides, but that involves a complex ripple effect on battery design to prevent degradation above 2.5 volts. The conventional workaround involves coating the cathode material. “Chloride electrolytes have become increasingly attractive because they oxidize only at high voltages, and some are chemically compatible with the best cathodes we have,” Nazar adds. “There’s been a few of them reported recently, but we designed one with distinct advantages.”Speaking of supply chains, in terms of overall sustainability the best EV battery ever is the one that never gets used, at least not in a car.
