Performance analysis of solid-state batteries in Electric vehicle applications

Abstract

In recent years solid-state batteries, have emerged leading research focus, due to their distinct advantages over conventional batteries. Solid-state batteries, having solid electrolytes, offer higher energy and power density, enhanced safety features and longer lifespan. This makes them ideal in fulfilling demand for energy storage in electric vehicle, and smart grid applications. This study aims to evaluate various types of solid-state batteries, analysing their properties, advantages, and disadvantages, assessing their viability in EV applications. The objective is to identify and recommend the most effective solid-state battery that aligns with the specific demands and operational conditions of electric vehicles and conduct a comprehensive analysis of anode and cathode elements of one of the solid-state batteries in their fresh and damaged state using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
