It’s hard to write about battery research around these parts without hearing certain comments echo before they’re even posted: It’ll never see the market. Cold fusion is eternally 20 years away, and new battery technology is eternally five years away.
While countless breakthroughs have been announced over the last decade, time and again these advances failed to translate into commercial batteries. One difficult thing about developing better batteries is that the technology is still poorly understood.
One difficult thing about developing better batteries is that the technology is still poorly understood. Changing one part of a battery—say, by introducing a new electrode—can produce unforeseen problems, some of which can’t be detected without years of testing.
But if indeed a battery is broken down into little pieces like that, the resulting mess can actually give birth to better batteries. "The black mass, when it's refined, is better than using virgin material," Brian Skalovsky, director of battery recycling at Cox Automotive Mobility EV Battery Solutions, told us.
