What needs to be done to make useful Li-CO2 batteries?

April 11, 2022

Headline figures are a theoretical specific energy density of 1,876Wh/kg and a ~2.8V discharge potential, but in practical terms the technology has not even reached infancy.

To build a solid foundation for its development, a team of interdisciplinary researchers lead by the University of Adelaide has set out establish a context for further rechargeable alkali metal based carbon dioxide battery research, assessing suitable electrodes, electrolytes and catalysts along the way.
