The latest power battery technology breakthrough: open a new era of new energy

With the rapid development of new energy vehicles and energy storage industries, the performance requirements for power batteries are becoming higher and higher. Problems such as range anxiety and slow charging speed have always been bottlenecks in the development of the industry, and the latest technological breakthroughs have brought light to solve these problems.

Ideal car has made significant progress in the research and development of power batteries, and has successfully overcome the technical problems of 5C supercharge. Through in-depth exploration of the battery material system, optimization of the cell and battery pack structure design, and improvement of the battery management system (BMS), the ideal MEGA can achieve a pure battery range of 710 kilometers. And it only takes 12 minutes to replenish 500 kilometers, and the average full charge time in the actual use scenario is less than 15 minutes, which greatly alleviates the user's anxiety about replenishing energy, and also sets a new benchmark for the new energy vehicle industry.

At the same time, Pang Quanquan's team at Peking University made a breakthrough in solid-state battery technology. They developed new electrolyte materials and produced a new all-solid-state lithium-sulfur battery with impressive performance. The high specific capacity of 1497mAh g⁻¹ can be released at 2C ratio. Even at 20C ultra-high rate charging, the capacity can still reach 784mAh g⁻¹. And at 25°C, after 25,000 cycles at 5C ratio, it also has an initial capacity of 80.2%, with excellent cycle life. Solid state battery because of the use of solid electrolyte, can effectively avoid liquid electrolyte leakage, combustion and other risks, energy density is also higher, if it can be large-scale application, will bring changes to new energy vehicles, low-altitude flying cars and other fields.

These technological breakthroughs are of great significance to the new energy industry. In the field of new energy vehicles, the solution of battery life and charging problems will accelerate the replacement process of fuel vehicles; In the field of energy storage, high-performance batteries can improve energy storage efficiency, promote the storage and consumption of renewable energy, and promote the green transformation of the energy structure.

There are challenges, however, in rolling out the new technology. For example, the current manufacturing cost of solid-state batteries is too high, and it is difficult to land on a large scale in the short term. However, with the continuous maturity of technology and the improvement of the industrial chain, it is believed that these problems will be gradually solved.

Breakthroughs in power battery technology are reshaping the new energy industry landscape, and we have reason to look forward to a cleaner and more efficient energy future.
