    Abstract:

    Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) represent a massive shift beginning from personal electronic to energy storage in electrification of transportation, uninterrupted power supply and in supporting power generation from renewable energy technologies. Next generation of research in LIBs are making rapid progress in low-to zero cobalt cathodes, solid state batteries, safety, increased energy and power densities, fast charging and the use of 2D materials and metallic lithium as the anode.
    Looking into the near future, many other battery chemistries are also staking their claims within a mix of battery chemistry portfolios. In addition to LIBs, aspects of Lead Acid, Li-S, Sodium, Zinc, Aluminium, Potassium, and Redox battery systems will be discussed. Understanding battery chemistry basics is critical to unlocking the issues of energy, power, costs, safety, resources, and sustainability, as this talk will explore.
    • Some key areas of progress in the Battery Revolution will be addressed:
    • Acceleration of research & innovation.
    • Use of Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning.
    • Battery Supply Chain – implication for resources; Life Cycle Analysis.
    • Optimization of Materials and Energy with minimal environmental degradation with the battery eco-system.
    • Re-use, Recovery, Recycling and Upgrading of Battery Materials.
