Review on Li-Ion Based Battery Chemistry: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

Level of demand of Li-ion battery (LIB) applications are arising, including Electric Drive Vehicles and Energy Storage devices, cell design and performance requirements are continually changing, that poses unique difficulties to existing battery manufacturers. In response, there is an inevitable requirement of high-power density and energy in the function of LIB. In this review we have discussed about the alternate battery technologies which can potentially replace the existing LIB technology. Li battery’s electrical performances, their challenges the world will face in the near future as well as the upcoming battery technologies like graphene batteries, redox flow batteries which have the potential to compete in the current market have been discussed in this paper.

Next-generation batteries and U.S. energy storage: A comprehensive review: Scrutinizing advancements in battery technology, their role in renewable energy, and grid stability

“…It covers the electrical performances of Li batteries, their challenges, and upcoming battery technologies like graphene batteries and redox flow batteries. These emerging technologies have the potential to compete in the current market and address the challenges faced by LIBs, such as energy density limitations and environmental concerns (Daya & Paul, 2022).…”

Biochar‐Derived Hierarchical Porous Carbon as Tellurium Host for High‐Performance Potassium‐Tellurium Batteries

“…[1,2] However, the low proportion in the earth's crust and the uneven distribution of lithium resources limit the large-scale energy storage applications of lithium-ion batteries. [3,4] The inherent virtues of potassium, including high abundance, and low redox potential of À 2.93 V (vs. SHE) (close to lithium (À 3.04 V) and lower than sodium (À 2.71 V)), make potassium-ion battery (PIB) a promising candidate for large-scale energy storage with high working voltage, high energy density and low price. Additionally, potassium ions (K + ) have the highest ionic mobility and conductivity in electrolyte since their weaker Lewis acidity compared to lithium/sodium ions results in a smaller Stokes radius.…”

“…Lithium‐ion batteries have been widely used in electric vehicles and portable electronic devices due to their high energy density and long cycle life [1,2] . However, the low proportion in the earth's crust and the uneven distribution of lithium resources limit the large‐scale energy storage applications of lithium‐ion batteries [3,4] . The inherent virtues of potassium, including high abundance, and low redox potential of −2.93 V (vs. SHE) (close to lithium (−3.04 V) and lower than sodium (−2.71 V)), make potassium‐ion battery (PIB) a promising candidate for large‐scale energy storage with high working voltage, high energy density and low price.…”
