At first, the battery in your phone or electric car works just fine. It charges, discharges, and recharges with smooth ...

QuantumScape thinks it solved the biggest problems with its anode-free lithium metal battery that will most likely debut on a ...

A research team has identified a previously unknown degradation mechanism that occurs during the use of lithium-ion batteries ...

Learn what sodium-ion batteries are, how they compare to lithium-ion, and whether they could become the future of energy ...

Lithium-ion batteries, used in consumer devices and electric vehicles, typically last hours or days between charges. However, ...

Imagine never charging your phone again or having a pacemaker that lasts a lifetime. Scientists are developing tiny nuclear ...

The same advice suggests not letting your phone run down below 30 percent, as this can also harm battery longevity. However, ...

Key components in a traditional lithium-ion battery include an anode, electrolyte, separator and cathode. They all work together to shuttle electrons between an EV’s charge and discharge cycles. The ...

Scientists have developed a prototype nuclear battery using radiocarbon that could power small devices for decades without ...

Lithium-ion batteries contain nickel, cobalt, and lithium – valuable resources that play a major role in powering electric ...

Because it decays slowly — with a half-life of 5,730 years — a radiocarbon battery could theoretically last millennia. That’s ...

Business units of the two conglomerates say they will produce nickel cathode materials from lithium-ion battery production scrap.
