Can lithium-ion batteries be used for energy storage?

This work may pave the way to the development of high-capacity electrodes for organic rechargeable batteries. The application of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for energy storage has attracted considerable interest due to their wide use in portable electronics and promising application for high-power electric vehicles 1, 2.

What is the capacity contribution of lithium storage on C=N groups?

The capacity contribution of lithium-storage on C=N groups from COF can be detected to be 166, 107, 60, and 25 mAh g –1 at the 260th, 225th, 112th, and 10th cycles, respectively, which correspond to the ~75%, ~49%, ~27%, and ~11% of the capacity for the full two-lithium-ion storage on C=N groups, respectively.

Are lithium ion batteries a viable storage technology?

All of these technologies enable storage capacity ranging from two-digit MWh (flywheels) to GWh (hydropower) (Mongird et al., 2019). Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) have been proven to be an integral part of stationary storage with the largest battery being the Hornsdale Facility in Australia (100 MW h).

Can polymer electrolytes be used in lithium batteries?

Rational designs of solid polymer electrolytes with high ion conduction are critical in enabling the creation of advanced lithium batteries. However, known polymer electrolytes have much lower ionic conductivity than liquid/ceramics at room temperature, which limits their practical use in batteries.

Can non-flammable electrolyte enable lithium-metal batteries with aggressive cathode chemistries?

Fan, X. et al. Non-flammable electrolyte enables Li-metal batteries with aggressive cathode chemistries. Nat. Nanotechnol. 13, 715–722 (2018). Zhou, D. et al. Stable conversion chemistry-based lithium metal batteries enabled by hierarchical multifunctional polymer electrolytes with near-single ion conduction. Angew. Chem. Int.

Can a'shuttle-relay' increase the energy density of Li batteries?

In this work, we demonstrated that the “shuttle-relay” concept utilizing such graphitic carbon components in the cathode can provide additional capacity, which increases the energy density of existing Li batteries 44.
