🔋 Together with Thermo Fisher Scientific, I recently authored an opinion editorial on how advancing #sustainable #batterymaterials and alternative chemistries is critical to meeting the growing global demand for #energystorage, reducing supply chain dependencies, and minimizing environmental impact. Full article here: https://lnkd.in/eSNatiDW Promising technologies may include: ➡ #LFP Batteries: Offer a sustainable and cost-effective alternative by eliminating cobalt and nickel but have lower energy density. ➡ #LMFP Batteries: Improve upon LFP by adding manganese to increase energy density while maintaining sustainability. ➡ #Sodium Ion Batteries: Utilize abundant materials to reduce costs and reliance on critical minerals, suitable for stationary storage despite lower energy density. ➡ #SolidState Batteries: Promise higher energy densities and improved safety with solid electrolytes, though still under development. ➡ #MetalSulfur Batteries: Provide high theoretical energy densities using low-cost sulfur but face challenges with cycling stability. ➡ #Silicon-Based Anodes: Aim to enhance energy density and reduce graphite dependency but present manufacturing and performance challenges. ➡ #RedoxFlow Batteries: Ideal for large-scale, stationary energy storage with scalability and safety advantages, though less energy-dense. In my opinion, these technologies (and maybe more) represent the next phase of battery innovation, aiming to support the global shift toward electric mobility and renewable energy storage integration while addressing sustainability and supply chain concerns. Happy to have a discussion with the community on what you see as the best future battery technology, or perhaps a combination.
