Researchers now have a clearer picture of the chemical mechanisms underlying lithium-ion batteries—and it could lead to faster, more efficient batteries for electric vehicles, portable electronics, ...

Lithium-ion batteries have powered cell phones and EVs to new heights, but the technology isn't invincible. These mistakes ...

As electric vehicles roll off assembly lines, a bottleneck sits upstream: lithium refinement. Turning raw lithium into the compounds needed for batteries is expensive, messy, and energy-intensive, but ...

Sodium-ion batteries use more abundant raw materials but don’t currently perform as well as those made with lithium.

At the same time, demand for batteries has never been greater. 30% of cars sold in 2026 are expected to be electric vehicles ...
