Energy storage is considered a key technology for successful realization of renewable energies and electrification of the powertrain. This review discusses the lithium ion battery as the leading electrochemical storage technology, focusing on its main components, namely electrode (s) as active and electrolyte as inactive materials.
The high cost of materials and concerns about the availability of lithium and other critical metals like cobalt are also discussed as challenges for the scalability and sustainability of LIBs technology. In future, exploring alternative materials with better stability, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
Lithium-ion batteries are considered the foundation of rechargeable batteries for both portable and electric vehicle applications. Future sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) and current LIBs require electrolytes with high ionic conductivities. Liquid electrolytes have ionic conductivities in the order of 10 −3 –10 −2 S cm −1 [ 44 ].
With continued research and innovation, high-safety lithium batteries could lead to a new generation of safe, high-performance energy storage that meets the most stringent safety requirements, thereby accelerating the transition towards hybrid and pure electric propulsion.
Among various parts of LIBs, cathode material is heaviest component which account almost 41% of whole cell and also majorly decides the performance of battery.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have stood as the cornerstone of rechargeable energy storage systems for several years, with the specific energy of a commercial battery pack increasing from 80 Wh kg −1 in 1991 to over 360 Wh kg −1 in 2023 [ 1 ].
