GM unveils plans for lithium-metal batteries that could boost EV range
GM has released more details about its next-generation Ultium batteries, revealing that it's betting on lithium-metal technology to boost performance and energy density.
A new coating could be the key to lighter lithium metal batteries
For a couple of years now, scientists have positioned lithium metal batteries as the next major breakthrough in battery technology, thanks to two main advantages over their lithium-ion counterparts. First, they can store at least 33 percent more power per pound. Second, they're significantly lighter thanks to the fact the positive end of the battery, the anode, is made from lithium, instead of graphite.
