Lithium Ion Battery Recycling
There has been a lot of discussion from students and instructors on SEI's campus regarding lithium battery recycling. SEI's Lab Manager and Instructor, Alex Jahp, was able to put together some information for our students and staff on the topic.
Fire Suppression in Battery Energy Storage Systems
Any time a large amount of energy is squeezed into a tight space, there is a risk that it will escape in an uncontrolled manner. When this happens, fire is a common result and explosions are possible.
Photo Chemical Etching Gives Manufacturers the Edge in Electric Vehicle Production
Reduction of weight is an essential part of the EV revolution, a goal which can be achieved through etching, suitable applications including alkaline battery connectors and busbars.
Have Scientists Unlocked Better Energy Storage in Water-Based Batteries?

A team found that water-based batteries had a 1,000 times greater storage capacity than others. Texas A&M University researchers discovered that difference when working with metal-free products that rely on aqueous energy storage.
Powering the Future: NREL Research Finds Opportunities for Breakthrough Battery Designs
Using ultramodern capabilities and world-class laboratory facilities, NREL's energy storage researchers continue to push battery boundaries with materials development, thermal management, diagnostics, and modeling.
Lithium-Ion Batteries & Cold Weather
When temperatures dip below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the efficiency of a battery and the usable capacity that it has are both reduced by as much as 20 to 30 percent compared to when the temperatures are over 32 degrees.
Electric Vehicle Battery Innovation Predictions (2023)

With so much legislative emphasis being placed on the electric vehicle industry, Dr. Michelle Tokarz - VP of Partnerships and Innovation at The Coretec Group, discusses her thoughts and predictions on the direction she believes the EV battery industry will take in 2023.
The Only Battery That Can Survive a Bullet? Nanotech Energy Shoots for Unprecedented Safety Performance
A Nanotech Graphene-Powered Lithium-Ion Battery 18650 cell was shot by a 4.5BRA bullet at a speed of 2,917 feet per second. Despite the ferocious force of impact, the battery did not catch fire and even still held a charge.
Key milestone for LiNa Energy as it successfully demonstrates its sodium-ion technology for battery energy storage systems
LiNa Energy passed a key milestone after it successfully completed an independent demonstration of its lithium-free energy storage systems (made up of its sodium batteries) with commercial partner ion Ventures.
Operating Principles for Lead Acid Batteries
GEL, AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat), and Flooded batteries are all lead-acid batteries. The primary difference is how the electrolyte is handled. Each type of battery has its own optimal charging characteristics.
Green Autonomous Communities - Yucatán, Mexico
Focusing solely on affordable off-grid installations, their goal is to provide sustainable, inclusive and reliable clean energy solutions to improve the lives of 1 million Mexican residents by 2025.
'Freeze-Thaw Battery' Is Adept at Preserving Its Energy
The development of the "freeze-thaw battery," which freezes its energy for use later, is a step toward batteries that can be used for seasonal storage: saving energy in one season, such as the spring, and spending it in another, like autumn.
Battery Recycling Can Lead to a Better Future for Energy Resources
Various business sectors and local and federal government agencies are increasingly looking to lead batteries as a vital energy resource. Lead-acid batteries are nearly 100-percent recycled in a closed-loop system and represent a sustainable resource.
Understanding the Chemistries of Deep-Cycle Batteries
Advancements in battery chemistry and design have allowed deep-cycle batteries to deliver longer cycle life and higher capacity and cycle-up to full rated capacity faster than previous designs.
Lead Batteries Will Help Power the Future
Compared to newer battery technologies, lead batteries are inexpensive to manufacture. According to the Department of Energy, lead batteries have a lower capital cost of $260 per kilowatt hour (kWh) compared to lithium at $271 per kWh.
