Swiss scientists develop safer and longer-lasting batteries, reducing explosions and tripling their useful life.

There are high hopes for the next generation of high energy-density lithium metal batteries, but before they can be used in our vehicles, there are crucial problems to solve. An international research ...

Lithium-metal batteries are among the most promising technologies for energy storage. They offer significantly more energy in less space — and at a lower weight. However, one phenomenon slows down ...

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The manufacture of lithium-ion batteries allowed contaminants and other defects in batteries aboard Boeing 787 Dreamliner planes, including one battery that erupted in smoke and ...

A battery that charges fast, holds more energy, and stays safer under stress has become a kind of modern promise. You hear it ...
