Lithium based batteries have come to represent paradigm shift in energy storage in electrification of transportation and in supporting power generation from renewable energy technologies. Looking into the near future, many other battery chemistries are staking their claims within a mix of battery chemistry portfolios. Given the massive shifts facing the future energy-environment paradigm, it is pertinent to evaluate the progress of various battery chemistries within this nexus in the evolving scenario. Several factors including future research trajectories with respect to low-carbon resources become matters of paramount interest. Understanding battery chemistry basics is critical to unlocking the issues of energy, power, costs, safety, resources, and sustainability, as this Tutorial will explore. In addition to Lithium chemistries, fundamentals of Sodium, Zinc, Aluminium, Potassium, Magnesium, Lead, Solid-State and Redox battery systems will be introduced.
