The potential of these unique power sources make it possible to foresee an even greater expansion of their area of applications to technologies that span from medicine to robotics and space, making lithium batteries the power sources of the future. To further advance in the science and technology of lithium batteries, new avenues must be opened.
The evolution of the lithium ion battery is open to innovations that will place it in top position as the battery of the future. Radical changes in lithium battery structure are required. Changes in the chemistry, like those so far exploited for the development of batteries for road transportation, are insufficient.
It would be unwise to assume ‘conventional’ lithium-ion batteries are approaching the end of their era and so we discuss current strategies to improve the current and next generation systems, where a holistic approach will be needed to unlock higher energy density while also maintaining lifetime and safety.
Lithium batteries are characterized by high specific energy, high efficiency and long life. These unique properties have made lithium batteries the power sources of choice for the consumer electronics market with a production of the order of billions of units per year.
Due to the high value of the energy content, lithium ion batteries have triggered the growth of the market of popular devices, such as mobile phones, lap-top computers, MP3s and others. Indeed, lithium ion batteries are today produced by billions of units per year, see Fig. 3. Fig. 3.
