Solid State Energy Storage - Abdallah Mteir

Description:

R&D of the Storage system special case the Solid State batteries, so the world right now is suffering from being very few energy storages method which can hold energy, as most of the energy produced is consumed so not much energy are left for storage, the future should have more energy storage for long term goals like the solid-state batteries which already started to be used in some cars as it has really good feature compared to other batteries.

The liquid metal battery is comprised of a liquid calcium-alloy anode, a molten salt electrolyte and a cathode comprised of solid particles of antimony, enabling the use of low-cost materials and a low number of steps in the cell assembly process.

Enablers:

Solid-state batteries are more safety than lithium-ion batteries and can charge fast safely and have a lot more capacity, with the same size, one important point is that a solid-state battery will have more than 90% capacity after 5000 charging cycles compared to 500 charges for the lithium-ion, so we will have 10 times longer battery life compared to Li-ion batteries.

Inhibitors:

The price which is almost 8 times higher than the Li-ion batteries but according to experts in about 5-7 years we will have similar prices for solid-state batteries as the NMC cell costs.

Paradigms:

nowadays, a lot of storage systems are not reliable and cant be trusted to store the energy for a long time, so we will have a new way of storing energy which will be having big capacity with a smaller size and much longer lifetime

Experts:

Wikipedia
Tesla
Samsung

Timing:

in five years all of the energy storage systems will be changed once we got a good price for the Solid-state batteries.
