Challenges and opportunities for high-quality battery production at scale   Abstract As the world electrifies, global battery production is expected to surge. However, batteries are both difficult to produce at the gigawatt-hour scale and sensitive to minor manufacturing variation. As a result, the battery industry has already experienced both highly-visible safety incidents and under-the-radar reliability issues—a trend that will only worsen if left unaddressed. Here we highlight both the challenges and opportunities to enable battery quality at scale. We first describe the interplay between various battery failure modes and their numerous root causes. We then discuss how to manage and improve battery quality during production. We hope our perspective brings

The first generation of energy-dense 4695 large cylindrical battery independently developed by Tianjin Lisen Co., Ltd. has a high energy density >280 Wh/kg, a fast charge time of less than 18min, and a cycle life of more than 1200 times with a capacity retention rate of more than 80 %. Highlights •4695 cylindrical lithium-ion cells adopt NCM cathode and Gr.+SiC anode. •4695 cylindrical lithium-ion cells possess high energy density and high safety. •4695 cylindrical lithium-ion cells support 4C fast charging (lifespan >1200cycles). Abstract Developing fast-charging technology for lithium-ion batteries with high energy density remains a significant and unresolved challenge. Fortunately, the advent of the 46 series large cylindrical batteries featuring

All-solid-state sodium-ion batteries operating at room temperature based on NASICON-type NaTi2(PO4)3 cathode and ceramic NASICON solid electrolyte: A complete in situ synchrotron X-ray study   Highlights •NASICON-type NaTi2(PO4)3/C is developed as cathode for sodium-ion battery. •Solid-state electrolyte Na3.16Zr1.84Y0.16Si2PO12 is prepared. •Prepared All-solid-state sodium-ion battery works at room temperature. •The in situ synchrotron X-ray study shows the bi-phasic reaction of cathode. •Sequential Rietveld refinements are analyzed to understand the phase evolution.   Abstract All-solid-state sodium-ion batteries that work at ambient temperature are a potential approach for large-scale energy storage systems. Nowadays, ceramic solid electrolytes are gaining attention because of their good ionic conductivity and excellent mechanical and chemical stabilities. Furthermore, a

Abstract Energy production and storage technologies have attracted a great deal of attention for day-to-day applications. In recent decades, advances in lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology have improved living conditions around the globe. LIBs are used in most mobile electronic devices as well as in zero-emission electronic vehicles. However, there are increasing concerns regarding load leveling of renewable energy sources and the smart grid as well as the sustainability of lithium sources due to their limited availability and consequent expected price increase. Therefore, whether LIBs alone can satisfy the rising demand for small- and/or mid-to-large-format energy storage applications remains unclear. To mitigate these issues, recent research has focused on alternative energy
