Battery Insiders is a podcast produced by Battery Associates that covers the topic of batteries and how they can contribute to a sustainable world. The podcast ...
In this episode, Dr. Xi Dou, co-founder and CEO of Hytzer Energy, discusses the current state and future potential of solid-state batteries (SSBs). He highlights their advantages, including higher energy density, much higher power density and intrinsically improved safety compared to traditional lithium-ion and other solid-state batteries, and explains the scientific and manufacturing challenges that hinder solid-state battery's commercialization in general. The conversation touches on the root causes of thermal run-away mechanism in conventional lithium-ion batteries and highlights why solid-state batteries address this safety issue; cost reduction potential, with polymer-based SSBs being more compatible with existing production lines. Dr. Dou also outlines key market applications with stringent safety requirements and demanding performance, such as flying taxis and premium electric vehicles. He further describes ongoing innovations, including advanced designs of lithium-metal anodes and anode-free batteries. He concludes with insights into future advancements, including batteries with energy densities exceeding 500 Wh/kg, and the readiness of large-format SSBs for commercial applications.

Chasing Efficiency: How the West Can Compete in the global battery market
In this episode, Our guest speaker Ken Hoffman highlights the competitive advancements in battery technology, particularly in China, where innovations in battery pack design allow for extended ranges and rapid recharge times, giving them an edge over Western models. Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) are also very cost-competitive, putting pressure on Western markets. To close the gap, Western companies are exploring new battery technologies aimed at reducing production costs and improving efficiency. Hoffman suggests that instead of replicating China’s large-scale production methods, the U.S. and Europe should focus on innovative, smaller-scale facilities. He emphasizes the importance of increased investment to build a strong domestic battery supply chain in North America and Europe.
