Today, 60% of electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its efficiency, high power-to-weight ratio and flexibility to allow chemical alterations. As the EV industry gains steam, supply chain and design challenges are spurring battery manufacturers to explore alternatives.
Some of the alternative battery technologies include lithium-iron phosphate (LFP), lithium-sulfur battery (LSB) and sodium-ion battery (SIB). Besides LFP, LSB and SIB, solid-state batteries (SSBs) are touted as a forerunner for the next-generation battery technology.
Despite these advancements, the current speed of innovation is not accelerating fast enough to meet the demands of the rapidly growing EV sector. This presents opportunities in areas such as battery design and securing the supply chain locally via vertical integration.
As the world welcomes green mobility, commercializing battery technology will be imperative to drive global EV adoption. Given the increased push for battery development and innovation, we believe that it’s only a matter of time before supply catches up with demand.

The current & future trends on ultra highchandan kumar
Due to worldwide concerns about power issues there has been an increased demand for ultra-power batteries with longer life and rechargeable facility.
Nowadays the modern electric devices need secondary batteries that can be charged and discharged frequently. To power larger devices, such as electric cars, connecting many small batteries in a parallel circuit is more effective and more efficient than connecting a single large battery. Li-ion batteries are one of the ultra-high capacity batteries which provide lightweight, high energy density power sources for a variety of devices. Li-ion batteries are used in
Telecommunications applications. Secondary non-aqueous lithium batteries provide reliable backup power to load equipment located in a network environment of a typical telecommunications service provider. But only ultra-power batteries are not capable of meeting the needs of the power in electric devices/system so ultra-capacitors are used in some devices. In this paper we are going to discuss the current and future trends of ultra-power batteries and super capacitors.

Charging and Discharging Control of Li Ion Battery for Electric Vehicle Appli...ijtsrd
This paper presents the detailed simulation and analysis of a battery charging and discharging control for electric vehicle EV application using proportional and integral control. A lithium Ion battery model in MATLAB is considered for this study. The purpose of study is to perform a detailed analysis of the charging and discharging operation and observe the behavior of the key parameters of the battery. To realize these two voltages sources have been used, i.e., one is the battery itself and the other is the DC voltage source. The two different voltage source is feeding to a common load. The DC voltage source feeds the load when the battery is in charging mode. When the battery supply is available then it is discharging to feed the load and its control is designed to generate the reference pulses for DC DC converter. The two scenarios have been simulated and results are recorded which shows the effective operation of charging and discharging of a battery source.

he ability to affordably store
energy in large quantities for both
residential and grid applications
is set to redefine energy consumption,
production and grid operation. With
batteries set to become a requisite part of
residential power systems, it should come as
no surprise that development in the energy
storage sector has gone into overdrive.
Lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries are the
current forerunners in this booming
industry, and with their high energy density
and compact footprint it’s easy to see
why. Indeed, a host of lithium alternatives
to Tesla’s now famous Powerwall are
beginning to come out of the woodwork.
Advancements in lithium battery
technology are also progressing with US
body, the National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST), University of
Arizona and Seoul National University
jointly developing an inexpensive method
for fabricating Lithium-Sulphur batteries.
Through a process coined ‘inverse
vulcanisation’ researchers have produced
a stable plasticised sulphur cathode that is
cheap (sulphur is a petroleum bi-product)
and easy to produce. The resulting battery
was touted to retain over 50% of its
capacity after 500 cycles.
Their ability to deliver in power intensive
situations means lithium batteries can
perform well in a range of applications,
but the alkali metal’s inherent instability
and the battery’s consequential
incendiary potential will always dissuade a
considerable portion of the market.
To fill this gap there is a host of emerging
battery chemistries and technologies that
have the potential to deliver some very
stiff competition to lithium and make
the energy storage market extremely
competitive in the near future.
Redflow’s ZBM
A relatively small, modular zinc-bromine
flow battery that can also be containerised
to form large scale storage systems
has been developed by Brisbane-based
company Redflow. The batteries, or
zinc-bromide modules (ZBMs), range
from 8–11kWh and have a footprint of
just 0.34m².
Flow batteries operate by continuously
pumping an electrolyte between a
storage compartment and a reaction
chamber containing the electrodes. This
action means flow batteries contain
more moving parts than most other
batteries and while this can be seen
as a disadvantage, the separation of
compartments also allows for the
replacement of the electrode stack while
retaining the battery’s other elements.
The nominal 48V batteries have a
100% depth of discharge and operate
at near linear voltage and current levels
across all charge states, making them well
The fervour surrounding
energy storage devices
is driving significant
developments in battery
chemistry and technology,
causing a diverse
marketplace to emerge.

suited to energy applications as opposed
to power applications.
While the company’s key target market
is telecommunications base transceiver
sites, Redflow also focuses on transmission
and distribution deferral over smart grids
and micro grids, renewables integration, on
and off grid remote power and residential
energy storage.
The batteries can be kept at low or zero
state of charge for long periods of time
without degradation and can use their full
capacity for deep day-in day-out cycling.
ZBMs can also be stored uncharged and
have an indefinite shelf life.
“We have a longer base life than Li-Ion
and when factoring in the ZBM’s capacity
for 100% depth of discharge and its
indefinite shelf life, Redflow’s battery
life can be seen to significantly increase.
Our ZBM3 (11kWh) has an expected
life of more than 44,000kWh, and this
can be extended further with a stack
replacement,” says Redflow’s marketing
manager Sciobhan Leahy.
ZBMs are built from a commonly
sourced plastic and contain no rare earth
elements. Their electrolyte (a water
based solution of zinc-bromide salt) is fire
retardant and because of the separation
of the stack and tank there is no chance of
thermal runaway.
ZBMs are managed by an on-board
Module Management System (MMS) that
controls battery operations while providing
access to battery status, real-time data,
event logs, warnings and alarms. This
allows the battery to self-manage and
protect against potential risks.
Ambri’s liquid metal battery
American company Ambri is in the
process of fine tuning a liquid metal
battery. Originally developed by MIT
professor Don Sadoway, the technology is
touted to fundamentally change the way
power grids are operated. Unfortunately,
dates for the first commercial sales have
recently been pushed back due to an
issue with one of the battery’s seals, but
the company is still progressing with
development – albeit at a reduced pace.
The battery’s cells are made of three
simple components, a salt electrolyte
which separates two metal (electrode)
layers of magnesium (Mg) and antimony
(Sb). Because of their different densities
these components naturally form three
layers when in a liquid state. As the
battery discharges, Mg electrons move
across the electrolyte to form an Mg-Sb
alloy, when the battery is recharged the
metals separate again and return to their
original compositions.
Because the battery is all liquid, the
electrodes will not degrade in the same
way as their solid counterparts. This means
the battery could potentially last many
years without losing much of its storage
capacity. The batteries are also incredibly
scalable and can range in size from 100kWh
to hundreds of mWhs.
The cells are housed in steel containers
and are assembled in systems using
basic components such as steel racking.
Because of this, Ambri’s manufacturing
strategy involves steel workers on a
production line that is similar to an
aluminium smelter. This relatively
simple manufacturing process and
the technology’s use of cheap, earth
abundant materials, means the batteries
promise to be extremely affordable to
build and maintain.
Aquion Energy’s aqueous
hybrid ion battery
Commercial shipments of Aquion
Energy’s AHI batteries began in mid-
2014 and are rapidly increasing because,
according to Aquion’s VP of product
management Matthew Maroon,
they satisfy several unmet market
requirements.
Being saltwater batteries that use no
heavy metals, they are a clean, non-
toxic energy storage solution based
on abundant, low-cost materials. AHI
batteries are modular and scalable for
various power/energy ratio applications
up to mW scale and are easily
manufactured, providing economical,
long-duration storage for high-energy
applications such as renewable energy
storage and time shifting.
“AHI batteries are optimised for
daily deep cycling (defined as 4 to 20+
hour charge and discharge cycles) for
residential solar. Being adept at long
duration cycling and because they’re
not damaged by long stands at partial
state of charge, they are high performing
under solar cycling profiles and are the
cleanest and safest storage solution
available. In fact, Aquion batteries are
the only ones that are Cradle-to-Cradle
certified and we’ve found that their
inherent safety really resonates with
customers,” says Matthew.
As the energy storage market grows,
we can expect new innovations in battery
technology to come to light increasingly
frequently. There is room for multiple
players in battery manufacturing as
different battery chemistries will play a role
in meeting the needs of different customer
types and applications.
Development in the energy
storage sector has gone
into overdrive.
