Many believe that solid-state battery technology is the successor of lithium-ion—especially in the context of electric vehicles. The technology has the potential to revolutionize energy storage in several ways. SSBs boast a high energy density, have extended lifespans and fast-charging capabilities, and are safer than traditional Li-ion batteries.
In recent years, solid-state lithium batteries (SSLBs) using solid electrolytes (SEs) have been widely recognized as the key next-generation energy storage technology due to its high safety, high energy density, long cycle life, good rate performance and wide operating temperature range.
Due to the first-mover advantage, Japan now has many high-quality solid-state battery companies and the most patents. As for the USA, SSLB is taken as one of the key technologies to maintain and advance U.S. battery technology leadership.
The rapid expansion will almost certainly lead to cell price declines as the batteries move from prototype sample cells to engineering-scale production. Solid-state batteries hold the promise of improved safety, a longer lifespan and faster charging compared with conventional lithium-ion batteries that use flammable liquid electrolytes.
The increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and grid energy storage requires batteries that have both high-energy–density and high-safety features. Despite the impressive success of battery research, conventional liquid lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have the problem of potential safety risks and insufficient energy density.
Solid-state batteries are intrinsically different from Li-ion batteries. Both their fabrication methods and testing conditions remain to be fully standardized, from the research laboratory environment to the production line. Notably, Japan, China, and the European Union have set ambitious targets to commercialize the technology by 2030 [ 1 ].
