The problem facing Bolloré’s solid-state batteries is exactly what all solid-state battery manufacturers need to tackle: the difference between the inside and outside of the laboratory. In November of this year, QuantumScape, an American solid-state battery startup with a market value exceeding Ford Motor’s, announced that the battery cell prototype maintained more than 80% of…
Although solid-state batteries have been identified as the “terminator” of liquid lithium-ion batteries, there is always one person who does not think so. He is Elon Musk. Contrary to the eagerness of major automobile companies towards solid-state batteries, Elon Musk and his Tesla have always kept quiet and distance from this new technology. …
As a brand new thing as EV, while solid-state batteries are highly favored by capital, they are also subject to the same intensity of doubt. Among them, the angle of suspicion that is most often capitalized and bold is: mass production progress. A new tech myth, or an old capital scam?…
Starting from the introduction of liquid lithium batteries into the electric vehicle field by Tesla in 2008, traditional liquid lithium-ion batteries have dominated the power battery market for more than ten years. The contradiction among energy density, safety requirements, cruising range, cost targets and liquid lithium-ion batteries is irreconcilable. To achieve the energy density target…
In 2008, Tesla installed lithium-ion batteries on the Roadster, a sports car that has completely subverted the century-old automobile industry. A mythical car story of lithium batteries So far, lithium-ion batteries have completed three generations of technology: lithium cobalt oxide cathode is the first generation, lithium manganate and lithium iron phosphate Lifepo4 batteries are…
