right catl is making this possible this gamechanging Innovation is set to revolutionize energ energy storage and challenge Global competitors in the race for battery dominance let's have a look catl batteries that could redefine energy storage China's battery and car makers have United as part of a government-led drive to commercialize all solid state batteries challenging Japan and the West many large car manufacturers are investing directly or through other companies in solid state batteries do you ever feel limited by your electric vehicles range be assured you are not the only one the world's largest battery manufacturer has revealed a new battery for plug-in hybrids and this highly anticipated battery will be revolutionary byy bye Toyota is being reported on by numerous media Outlets it is expected to initiate the journey to market dominance and power the future of batteries globally electric vehicles EV batteries and the market are projected to reach 135 billion Us doll by 2027 with a compound annual growth rate of 25% catl battery combines lithium ion phosphate lfp cells with sodium ion cells offering faster charging speeds and improved performance in cold weather compared to traditional lfp batteries phev and Reeve typically only extend between about 50 to 100 Kil Mo this limitation can be particularly challenge challenging on the expansive roads of the midwestern United States or The Great Australian Outback typically we require between 1 and 3 hours to fully charge our eevs sometimes even more however with catl supercharging technology charging speed exceeds that of most long-range electric vehicle models with ranges of over 600 Kil catl longevity batteries are all about endurance designed to last a long haul with a lifespan of up to 8 years and 800,000 kilm compared to regular batteries this one experiences reduced power Decay over time meaning your electric vehicles will stay Juiced for longer that translates to durable cars with a higher resale chl's research and development team is working tirelessly to improve the condensed batter's charging capabilities ensuring that it can recharge in minutes rather than hours this gamechanging will be of tremendous advantage not only in the transport sector but also in other areas as well for instance consider the efficiency of other alternative renewable energy sources like solar or wind and consider having durable and more efficient means of storing this energy being able to store excess energy generated during the day for use at night would not only reduce the community's carbon footprint but also lower its energy costs in the long run materials they're researching for those solid electrolytes are more more abundant and less toxic than the ones used in lithium ion batteries some of them don't even need those Rare Earth elements that are often well let's just say not great for the environment do you think this is doable mass production involves overcoming significant engineering and cost hurdles that is why I am a bit skeptical but let us say I will believe it when I see it temperature try to imagine being out in ative -1° centigrade environment like a Alaska and being able to charge your electric vehicle to 80% in less than 10 minutes wouldn't that be incredible cold weather often poses a challenge for electric vehicles with the battery capacities of Reeves and phevs typically declining by 15 to 30% in low temperatures in regions like northern Europe the impact of extreme cold can further heighten consumers concerns during travel however catl batteries are uniquely designed to discharge in extremely cold environments as low as -40° C they'll charge at -30° C and still provide strong power output at -20° this ensures a stable performance even in harsh conditions first and foremost we need to understand that the three essential components of any battery are the anode cathode and electrolyte and these components form a circuit that stores and releases energy the anode is where electrons flow out during discharge the cathode is where they flow in and the elect electrolyte facilitates the movement of lithium ions between the two components in traditional lithium ion batteries the electrolyte is a liquid that allows lithium ions to move freely between the anode and cathode still it also poses risks such as thermal runaway and fires in other words traditional lithium ion batteries have a limited temperature operating range affecting their performance in extreme conditions what has katl done in their condensed battery and how have they redesigned other parts of the cells solid state batteries aim to solve this by replacing the liquid electrolyte with a solid one this design would then provide higher energy densities which is the amount of electrical power a battery can store with respect to its mass and provide improved safety but it comes with its own set of challenges solid state batteries use lithium metal anodes which are lightweight enable higher voltages and can store more lithium ions leading to extremely high energy lithium ion batteries always need to have a 30 to 40% charge that's why when you get on a plane they ask you to take out your batteries if you're going to check in a bag it's for those reasons that they can become unstable and Catch Fire Imagine a future where electric planes can fly longer distances on a single charge reducing the aviation industry's Reliance on fossil fuels and lowering its carbon emissions at times it is very easy to criticize achievements without understanding the enormous effort that has been put into the mass production of catl solid state batteries which face significant challenges battery chemistry and structure and the development of advanced charging algorithms will be needed to ensure optimal safe and efficient delivery of high currents to the battery biometic electrolyte interfaces go a long way toward addressing the challenge of efficiency and Longevity however honestly there is still room for improvement sat's new interface layer is strong enough to withstand even the powerful dendrites from lithium metal anodes in the condensed battery while cat's solid state batteries are Paving the way for a revolutionary future it's important to acknowledge the immense challenges that come with such groundbreaking Innovation overcoming these hurdles requires cuttingedge technology and a Relentless pursuit of perfection so how does catl plan to tackle the limitations of traditional batteries and reshape the future of fast charging the future of fast charging fast charging is now a reality as kl's Innovative batteries prepare to redefine the EV industry and set a new standard in Battery Technology in the realm of electric vehicles the limitations of traditional lithium ion batteries Loom large posing significant challenges in terms of energy density charging time and overall performance while these limitations may be tolerable for smaller applications like wearable technology or smartphones they become glaring issues when applied to larger scale Endeavors such as electric vehicles the current challenge in traditional batteries is cycle longevity which is the number of times a battery can be charged and discharged before its performance begins to degrade conventional lithium ion batteries have a cycle life of around 1,000 Cycles limiting their long-term performance as such catl batteries intend to fix just that the company's researchers are exploring new materials and designs that can further enhance the batter's longevity ensuring that it can withstand thousands of charge discharge Cycles without significant degradation according to a new local report their design intends to increase the life cycle to 5,000 Cycles a 500% increase and you can guess what that would mean in the EV Market this means electric vehicles equipped with cat's technology could last longer and require fewer battery Replacements reducing the overall cost of ownership and performance traditional cathodes have energy densities of around 250 W hours per kilogram limiting the overall energy density of the battery still cat's ultra high energy density cathodes push this to 350 wed hours per kilogram of 40% increase many would be asking what the significance of a 40% increase is imagine your EV adding a range of 700 km in 10 minutes of charge won't that make your journey more straightforward and efficient according to cat's gaw Juan Chief technology officer of catl the battery known as freeo is the world's first Hybrid battery with a range of over 400 kilom estimated at 249 Mi here's where things get exciting traditional lithium ion batteries have charging rates of around 1 C limiting the speed at which they can be recharged however cat's Advanced charging algorithms and optimized battery chemistry allow for charging rates of up to 5c this means that the battery can be recharged in a fraction of the time making electric vehicles as convenient as gasoline powered cars solid state batteries in theory should increase safety increase energy density increase charging rates and lessen the need for certain volatile liquids in production sodium batteries are larger and have a lower energy density than lithium ion batteries battery fires have also been an issue that's dogged lithium ion technology so experts claim having solid state batteries will be much safer at the 2024 International Beijing Automotive exhibition catl unveiled the shanking Plus Battery this pioneering Innovation sets a new standard with an impressive range of 1,000 kilm the equivalent of traveling from Paris to Berlin without having to to charge halfway it establishes itself as the world's foremost lfp battery to attain a 1,000 kilom driving span and 4C Superfast charging capabilities the groundbreaking technology would let you rapidly recharge or discharge your electric vehicle for a 600 kilm Journey for just 10 minutes this battery maintains its exceptional performance even in frigid conditions ensuring robust operation and Rapid charging speeds regardless of the temperature drop in extremely low temperatures this battery is meant to achieve a 50% increase in charging efficiency at minus 20° C effectively this means even with low battery levels in the cold you can still experience the unyielding speed and thrill of 0 to 100 kilit m these energy densities translate to range in electric vehicles it is speculated that at times plug-in hybrid vehicle manufacturers might advertise unrealistic ranges of their electric vehicles for example they would say it has a 160 Kus of range but in the real world you get 100 Kos with groundbreaking advancements like these one might wonder are we finally on the brink of making clean efficient and sustainable energy a reality as the race to perfect Solid State Battery Technology heats up it's crucial to look beyond the marketing hype and understand these Innovations true potential and limitations The Road to Revolution clean efficient and sustainable energy should not just be a dream but a reality companies should push the boundaries of what is possible and pave the way for a brighter more sustainable future several automakers and Battery manufacturers are actively researching and developing solidstate Battery Technology aiming to overcome current challenges and make it commercially viable for widespread Automotive use we should not be blinded by the marketing gimmicks of companies we need to know that all types of batteries lose a significant amount of their theoretical potential due to practical limitations the most significant challenge with the solid state batteries is dendrites Recent research has shown that dendrites grow faster in lithium metal and nodes due to the higher reactivity of lithium these dendrites are tiny branch-like structures that can cause short circuits and fires the solid electrolyte does not perfectly block lithium dendrites from forming when charging and as such causes a short circuit if it reaches the cathode Mr zung said solid state batteries only held advantages over existing batteries if they used a new type of chemistry along with pure lithium metal for the anode electrode cat's breakthrough lies in two Innovative components the 3D honeycomb anode and the biometic electrolyte interface in traditional batteries a thin interface layer forms between the anode and the electrolyte during the first charge acting as a protective barrier against dendrites however these dendrite layers are not strong enough for lithium metal catl has developed a biometic interface inspired by nature which is designed to create structures that mimic those found in animal cells this Innovative design forms a uniform mechanically robust barrier that is capable of withstanding even the most forceful dendrite growth a common issue in Battery Technology by drawing inspiration from biological systems this interface enhances the durability and performance of the battery ensuring it remains stable over extended use there are other challenges that still affect the mass production of these batteries batteries electric vehicles and other applications are subject to a wide range of temperatures humidity levels and other environmental factors that can affect their performance some pretty wild ideas are floating about at the moment still another possible Advantage could be reduced use of critical raw materials solid state batteries do away with the heavy liquid electrolyte inside lithium ion batteries the replacement is a solid electrolite which can come from glass Ceramics or other materials Toyota aims to sell its first electric vehicles powered by a solid state battery before 2030 while several other automakers are working in partnership with battery producers on their solid state battery projects there is much speculation that a solid state cell might be so fragile that it is damaged by everyday bumps it might even be prone to spontaneous explosions or it doesn't work in the required temperature range there are new competing Technologies such as liquid sulfur anodes and noome batteries that may be better than solid state batteries currently most electric vehicle owners worry about limited range and long charging times still with the catl solid state battery these concerns could become a thing of the past the cat L research and development team is conducting extensive testing to ensure that the condensed battery can perform reliably under all conditions from the desert's scorching heat to the arctic's unfriendly cold solid state batteries while highly promising for their safety and efficiency are currently expensive to manufacture due to the complexity involved in both their handling and production processes the average temperature of the Arctic region in winter is minus 31.8 6° Celsius so having a battery that is capable of charging and demonstrating strong adaptability to extreme environments will be quite profound and will continue to show human Ingenuity and relentlessness additionally despite their advantages these batteries face the limitation of requiring replacement after extensive cycles of charging and discharging this reduces their long-term practicality and poses a challenge in terms of cost Effectiveness and sustainability however with ongoing advancements such as cat's biomimetic interface there is hope for improving San believes that the theoretical potential is enormous still it needs to be practical and attainable stability under real world conditions is another critical challenge contemporary erex technology combo limited cat's story is one of ambition Innovation and the Relentless pursuit of a better tomorrow while these breakthroughs in Battery Technology are undoubted impressive there's one question that still looms large can they truly overcome the roadblocks of cost and sustainability with major players like catl pushing the limits the race to unlock the full potential of solid state batteries has never been more intense cost let us remember that we are not just witnesses to history but active participants in shaping the future of energy storage and utilization so as we look to the future we should not forget the roles we play in achieving a Greener and sustainable environment I imagine that when the major players have solved the challenges then we will get some very concrete developments about the future of batteries established players like Tesla and Toyota have been making strategic Investments aiming to dominate the market with solid state technology keeping up with the scale of growth of the battery Market will probably be one of the largest challenges for solid state batteries in reaching a large Market penetration the biggest challenge is cost these batteries are set to revolutionize the EV industry still currently these batteries are more expensive to produce than traditional lithium ion batteries with demand for lithium ion batteries projected to soore in the coming years cat's announcement shocked both the stock market and the EV industry lithium stocks skyrocketed overnight leaving many investors wondering what the future holds energy storage will transform everything from your smartphone to the very power grid that keeps our World running contemporary amperex technology compy limited with a 36.7% market share has quietly been working on something far more revolutionary these batteries could reshape Industries Beyond electric vehicles including renewable energy storage and electric Aviation with catl Innovation solar and wind energy can be stored efficiently and reliably providing a stable power supply in this modern era the chase for carbon neutrality is essential and the use of low carbon emission raw materials is critical in the production process solid state batteries remain expensive compared to their lithium ion counterparts posing profitable tie challenges in the early phases of production Mr zong was quoted in an automotive exhibition in Japan I mean if this is not a sales pitch I do not know what is as with any new technology success usually comes with scale which solid state battery companies have yet to build out surely catl is Paving the way for Next Generation battery technologies to become commercially viable as I see it eventually lithium ion batteries may not look like batteries at all and only the Innovative Battery Solution will stay consumers and manufacturers alike are sensitive to cost as such catl is investing in advanced Manufacturing Technologies in economies of scale aiming to drive down the cost of producing the condensed battery and make it competitive with existing Technologies catl has innovatively developed the directional recycling technology for the resource regeneration process helping recycle up to 91% of lithium and over 99.6% of nickel Cobalt and manganese from retired batteries contemporary amperex technology Comey limited catl intends to reduce the cost of producing the battery to $80 us per KW hour a 20% production which will make catl batteries more competitive with existing Technologies accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles and reducing the overall cost of ownership catl is the biggest battery company in the world this will likely be the cheapest battery on the market for plug-in hybrids challenges persist particularly in scaling up production and cost Effectiveness nonetheless ongoing research by Endeavors is poised to unlock graphite's full potential propelling Battery Technology into Uncharted territories furthermore Solid State Technology Heralds a paradigm shift in battery design leveraging solid electrolytes to enhance safety and energy density by replacing flammable liquid electrolytes solid state batteries mitigate the risk of combustion while enabling higher voltage operation with Superior energy storage capabilities do you think this can be achieved this year or does it remain a dream at times it is important to know these things before spending $60,000 or $100,000 on a vehicle that is not value for your money meaning you want to be using that battery as much as you can efficiently while being able to save money what catl is doing is nothing short of incredible the future of solid state Battery Technology appears promising with continued research and development we can expect the emergence of more efficient safer and costeffective batteries as the shift towards sodium ion batteries gains momentum we may see a massive change in the market it's essential to scrutinize the fundamental components driving these remarkable advancements the Silicon anode emerges as a Cornerstone offering unparalleled potential alongside notable challenges silicon's Allure lies in its exceptional lithium storage capacity dwarfing traditional graphite Toyota's commitment to this technology builds upon its history of Automotive Innovation suggesting a long-term strategy focused on perfecting the technology before its widespread Market launch in 2028 this suggests how the electric vehicle industry is transforming and how sustainable energy is important for a better tomorrow ultra dense Battery Technology refers to a breed of batteries boasting an exceptionally high energy density the Allure of high energy density batteries lies in their ability to offer extended operating ranges and improved performance for electric vehicles such as those manufactured by the pioneering company I really can't overstate that this ability to use lithium metal anodes without the need for solid electrolytes is a real GameChanger with advancements like Silicon anodes replacing traditional graphite these batteries can significantly increase energy density for example silicon anodes can theoretically store up to 10 times more lithium ions compared to graphite which could potentially raise energy density to around 400 WS per kilog I've recently been reading about some of the breakthroughs from Chinese Battery Giant catl when they say they have a new breakthrough they almost always deliver on it catl has been clear that this is not a lab scale demonstration they said this is currently operational in a tons scale electric passenger aircraft though we have yet to see videos I hope you now understand why since its Inception catl has grown rapidly and become a major supplier of batteries to a wide range of international car manufacturers many have said solid state batteries are an exciting new technology that can improve the existing battery Paradigm and open gateways toward new technology developments I hope this video has given people a bit of education on plug-in hybrid batteries there is still skepticism and most people believe solid state batteries may give mobile phones a longer charge and discharge life and make it safer to use more of the capacity without losing cycle life still until they go into production it is all speculation I hope you enjoyed it and until next time thanks for watching
