Study reveals plunge in lithium-ion battery costs

The price of Li-ion battery technologies has had a 97% price decline since 1991.

How to prevent short-circuiting in next-gen lithium batteries

This photograph shows a metal electrode (the textured inner circle) on a grey disc of solid electrolyte. After being tested through many charging-discharging cycles, the electrolyte shows the beginnings of dendrite formation on its surface.

Fikile Brushett is looking for new ways to store energy

Fikile Brushett, an MIT associate professor of chemical engineering, leads a group dedicated to developing more efficient ways to store energy, including batteries that could be used to store the energy generated by wind and solar power.

Researchers decipher structure of promising battery materials

Researchers at MIT and other institutions have found a way to stabilize the growth of crystals of several kinds of metal organic frameworks, or MOFs. This image shows two scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs of Cu3HHTT2 and Co6HHTT3 that can be isolated on-demand with either rod- or plate-like (inset) morphology by varying the synthetic conditions.

Evaluating battery revenues for offshore wind farms using advanced modeling...

MIT researchers investigated six mathematical representations to evaluate the potential added value of a battery in an energy system that pairs battery storage with an offshore wind farm.

Assessing the value of battery energy storage in future power grids

MIT and Princeton University researchers find that the economic value of storage increases as variable renewable energy generation (from sources such as wind and solar) supplies an increasing share of electricity supply, but storage cost declines are needed to realize full potential.

Solar energy farms could offer second life for electric vehicle batteries

An MIT study shows that electrical vehicle batteries could have a useful and profitable second life as backup storage for grid-scale solar photovoltaic installations, where they could perform for more than a decade in this less demanding role. This image shows a ‘cut-away’ view of a lithium-ion battery over a background of cars and solar panels.
