Solid State Energy Storage (Abdallah)

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.

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.
