Batteries are changing in response to the implementation of wind and solar energy systems. Solid-state batteries represent the next generation of power storage for vehicles. Nanotechnology permits units to be miniaturized, standalone, and portable. Solid-state batteries have advantages in power and density: low-power draw and high-energy-density. They have limitations in that there is difficulty getting high currents across solid-solid interfaces.

Power delivery is different in solid-state batteries, – there is more power per given weight. The very small and very thin size of solid-state battery electrodes helps to reduce the physical size of the sensor or device using the battery. Units can stay in the field longer. Solid-state batteries can store harvested energy.

When combined with energy harvesting solid-state batteries can make a device stay in the field almost indefinitely, last longer, power sensors better.

Temperature is a factor with batteries. The solid-state batteries work in a very broad range of temperatures, making them able to be used for ruggedized applications. Solid-state batteries are ecofriendly. Compared with traditional batteries, solid-state thin-film batteries are less toxic to the environment.

Solid-state battery market driving forces include response to IoT, creating business inflexion by delivering technology that supports entirely new capabilities is a market benefit. Sensor networks are creating demand for solid-state devices. Vendors doubled revenue and almost tripled production volume from first quarter. Multiple customers are moving into production with innovative products after successful trials.

A solid-state battery electrolyte is a solid, not porous liquid. The solid is denser than liquid, contributing to the higher energy density. Charging is complex. In an automotive application, recharge cycles go up, rendering a next-generation battery. The cycles increase by the inverse of the depth of discharge. Long shelf life is a benefit of being a solid-state battery. The fact that the battery housing does not need to deal with gases and vapours as a part of the charging/discharging process is another advantage.

Nanostructured or nano-enabled batteries are a new generation of lithium-ion batteries and battery systems to serve applications and markets. Nano-enabled batteries employ technology at the nano-scale, a scale of minuscule particles that measure less than 100 nanometers, or 100x10-9 meters.

Next-generation solid-state batteries are part of the Lithium-ion battery markets which are expected to reach to $1 trillion in 2026 in response to the adoption of solar and wind energy generation and the rapid adoption of electric vehicles that replace the gasoline-powered vehicles. Global warming is forcing a shift from fuels that are burned to renewable energy generation. Solid-state batteries represent the next generation of lithium-ion batteries and will account for powering electric cars.
