[ 42] Experimental characterization of materials and interfaces at large-scale research facilities, such as synchrotron and neutron scattering facilities, plays a critical role in ensuring sufficient acquisition of high-fidelity data describing battery materials and interfaces. [ 5]
This roadmap presents the transformational research ideas proposed by “BATTERY 2030+,” the European large-scale research initiative for future battery chemistries. A “chemistry-neutral” roadmap to advance battery research, particularly at low technology readiness levels, is outlined, with a time horizon of more than ten years.
Battery research occurs throughout the value chain of battery development. It can be oriented toward battery cells, based on competences in chemistry, physics, materials science, modelling, characterization, etc. It can also be oriented toward systems where the battery cells are integrated into packs, to be used in different applications.
Lithium-ion batteries represent the vast majority of the current market and research space; however, this boom cannot continue indefinitely due to the rarity of lithium (and cobalt). A trend in the research space toward lithium-free battery alternatives can already be observed.
To this end, the combination of theory and experiment can help to accelerate scientific and technological development in batteries (Fig. 2) (7, 8). In particular, theory calculations can be used to guide the rational design of experiments, obviating the need for an Edisonian approach.
To achieve this target, we will need to constantly innovate and develop superior battery chemistries capable of higher charge capacities and specific energies/energy densities (Fig. 1, A and B), preferably based on sustainable Earth-abundant raw materials (Fig. 1C).
