Next-gen EV batteries could last decades, researchers show the potential of single-crystal electrode tech | The battery lifespan could be around 20,000 cycles or 8 million kilometers
The study, funded by Tesla Canada and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, was led by Professor Jeff Dahn from Dalhousie University in Halifax,...
This innovation not only holds the potential to significantly increase the longevity and range of electric vehicles but also paves the way for more seamless integration of renewable energy sources into power grids. The research focused on understanding how internal damage and fatigue accumulate in batteries over time and devising methods to prevent these issues, explained Dr. Toby Bond, a senior scientist at the Canadian Light Source. With the CLS's ultrabright synchrotron light, researchers were able to study the internal structures of both battery types without disassembling them, ensuring the integrity of the long-cycled cells was maintained.
