Kyoto University and Toyota develop new technology for solid-state batteries: Fluoride triples capacity

A research group including Kyoto University and Toyota Motor Corporation has improved the capacity per volume of the positive electrode for "all-solid-state fluoride ion batteries" to approximately three times that of lithium-ion batteries. When incorporated into a battery, the volumetric energy density is expected to be more than twice that of lithium-ion batteries. The aim is to put it to practical use in electric vehicles (EVs) from 2035 onwa…
