Cobalt-Free, Anode-Free: A Simpler Route to High-Energy Cells?

Amode Free LNO

Anode-free lithium batteries take “delete the anode” to its extreme: instead of shipping graphite or a lithium foil, the cell starts with bare copper on the negative side. All the lithium comes from the cathode on first charge and plates itself onto that copper. Removing the graphite host lifts both gravimetric and volumetric energy density, … Read more

anodeless LMFP battery

LMFP anodeless may be right for you! Researchers at WMG, University of Warwick led by Prof. Louis Piper and Dr. Gerard Bree have tested a new battery chemistry in which the anodefree cell configuration (no anode host material like graphite) is coupled with an LMFP cathode (no cobalt, cost effective, secure supply chain) to create … Read more
