Solid state batteries will make it possible, at least on paper, to make electric cars take important steps forward on several fronts and, in particular, on those of autonomy and recharging. We know that several companies are developing this technology with the aim of bringing it to its debut in the next few years.
And on the subject of the development of solid state technology, comes the news that SVOLT announced that it has taken important steps forward in its work. The company, in fact, has made it known that it has successfully tested 20 Ah cells (among the tests carried out also that of the perforation to verify safety). Cells that, according to the manufacturer, will allow to reach a density; energy between 350 and 400 Wh/kg .
According to SVOLT estimates, these accumulators would be able to offer an electric car a range of about 1,000 km. For SVOLT this is the fifth generation of solid-state prototype cells. Currently, the manufacturer is developing this technology in a laboratory dedicated to solid state batteries which is the result of the merger of SVOLT's Wuxi Lithium Battery Innovation Center with the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology & amp; Engineering.
For this technology, the company already has registered 109 patents. The work goes on and does not & egrave; clear when the company & agrave; will be able to reach a mass production of these new cells. Certainly interesting news that demonstrates how important this technology is for the future of electric cars given investments in research and development also by other companies in the sector.
However, we are still only at the ad level. Very good that companies are making important steps forward but something more is needed; concrete. We also remind you that even if solid state technology really succeeds; to debut in a few years, before its wide diffusion it will take & agrave; a lot of time. This is why & eacute; companies are continuing to develop current battery technology that still has it. offer ample room for improvement.
