Researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology and Argonne National Laboratory have developed a solid-state lithium-air battery that achieves four times the energy density of traditional lithium-ion batteries, potentially rivaling gasoline in energy storage capacity. This breakthrough is enabled by a novel four-electron chemical reaction at room temperature, allowing the formation and reversible decomposition of lithium oxide (Li₂O), which stores significantly more energy than the lithium superoxide or lithium peroxide reactions used in previous lithium-air batteries. The battery employs a solid ceramic-polymer electrolyte embedded with lithium-rich nanoparticles, replacing flammable liquid electrolytes to enhance safety and electrochemical stability. A key component of this innovation is the trimolybdenum phosphide (Mo₃P) catalyst, which facilitates the stable four-electron transfer reaction over extended use. The battery demonstrated durability of at least 1,000 charge-discharge cycles at room temperature without significant degradation. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy confirmed the reversible lithium oxide reaction, validating the approach. With an estimated energy density of 1,200 watt-hours per kilogram, this technology promises to dramatically extend electric vehicle range, reduce battery size and weight, and improve the safety and efficiency of renewable energy storage.

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a novel solid-state battery that blends lithium with soft sodium metal, significantly reducing the high pressure typically required for solid-state battery operation. This breakthrough addresses a major limitation of solid-state batteries, which usually need heavy and bulky metal plates to maintain pressure, making them impractical for widespread use. By incorporating sodium, which is electrochemically inactive but very soft, the battery maintains better contact with the solid electrolyte under lower pressure, enhancing performance and potentially enabling lighter, longer-lasting batteries. The team drew inspiration from biology, specifically the concept of morphogenesis, to explain how the sodium-lithium combination adapts structurally during battery use. This biological analogy helped them understand the deformable nature of sodium within the battery, which adjusts to changes and improves stability. Funded partly by DARPA, the research promises significant advancements, including electric vehicles capable of traveling 500 miles on a single charge and longer-lasting phone batteries. While commercialization challenges remain, this innovation could mark a major leap forward in battery technology by making solid-state batteries more competitive with current lithium-ion standards.

Researchers at Binghamton University have developed a dissolvable battery powered by probiotics—live microorganisms commonly found in yogurt and health supplements—that can generate electricity for over 100 minutes before harmlessly dissolving into the environment. This innovation addresses a major challenge in transient or bioresorbable electronics, which require power sources that disintegrate without leaving toxic residues. Unlike conventional lithium-ion batteries, which contain harmful materials, this biobattery uses a 15-strain probiotic blend on water-soluble or pH-responsive substrates, enabling controlled power delivery ranging from 4 minutes to over 100 minutes. A single module produces 4 µW of power, 47 µA of current, and an open-circuit voltage of 0.65 V. The research team, led by faculty member Choi from the Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science, drew on two decades of work on disposable “papertronics” and biobatteries. They engineered porous, polymer- and nanoparticle-enhanced electrodes to optimize the electrogenic capability of the probiotics, ensuring safe and efficient electricity generation. This breakthrough paves the way for new applications in biomedical implants, environmental sensors, and disposable electronics that require safe, transient power sources. The study highlights the potential for bioenergy systems that dissolve without environmental harm, fulfilling a vision similar to the self-destructing devices popularized in fiction like the Mission: Impossible films.

The German car industry, represented by the VDA, is pushing the European Union to weaken its 2035 climate target for vehicle emissions, seeking exemptions for plug-in hybrids and incentives for low-carbon fuels. This comes after the industry previously opposed the 2025 EU target despite rising electric vehicle (EV) sales in Germany. If the EU accedes to these demands, carbon emissions from cars in Europe could increase by 0.5 to 1.4 gigatons, up to 31% more than current targets, according to Transport & Environment (T&E) analysis. T&E criticizes the industry’s proposal as a strategic move to undermine the EU’s climate goals, warning it would reduce battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales to between 44% and 69% by 2035, far below the current 100% target. This rollback would damage market certainty and investor confidence, particularly in battery and charging infrastructure, hindering Europe’s efforts to build resilience in the EV sector. T&E emphasizes that the global automotive market is moving toward electrification regardless, and weakening the EU’s standards risks leaving its auto industry behind. The EU Commission is currently under pressure to review the 2035 law earlier than planned, following a delay in the 2025 target.

The article from CleanTechnica reflects on Tesla's evolving trajectory over the past 13 years, highlighting a shift from its early days of visionary growth to recent challenges. Initially, Tesla experienced rapid expansion fueled by strong consumer demand for affordable, long-range electric vehicles like the Model 3 and Model Y, validating early optimistic coverage despite widespread skepticism. However, in recent years, Tesla's sales growth has stalled and even declined, with increasing competition eroding its market share. The article notes that Tesla fans often rationalize these setbacks with hopes for future breakthroughs, but the current reality suggests a departure from Tesla’s original growth story. Additionally, the article discusses Elon Musk’s increasingly controversial political involvement, which has alienated various groups, including both critics and some supporters. Musk’s public behavior and focus have shifted significantly compared to a decade ago, raising questions about his leadership and the company’s direction. While some remain hopeful about Tesla’s potential in emerging sectors like robotaxis, AI, and robotics, these represent a significant departure from Tesla’s initial business plan and require a leap of faith. The article emphasizes the importance of objective realism, acknowledging that Tesla and Musk have changed, and that recognizing current challenges is not hatred but a necessary assessment of the company’s status.
