Ford's Tesla connection got people talking this week, but solid state electric vehicle battery technology is also in the works.
To be clear, Ford also waxed enthusiastically on its gasmobile business. However, it did point out that sales of the Mustang Mach-E pushed the company into the lead position in U.S. auto sales, and the company expects high volume sales of the F-150 Lightning and E-Transit van., the technology is still relatively new and commercialization is years away.
“Next year will be a pivotal chapter in Solid Power’s story as we expect to formally enter the automotive qualification process,” they added. They have their work cut out for them. Solid Power isn’t making just any old solid state battery. It is focusing on silicon anodes, which in theory could be 10 times more energy efficient than conventional graphite anodes.
Conventional liquid-electrolyte batteries are no friend to silicon anodes, but Solid Power figures a solid electrolyte will resolve the degradation issues without sacrificing performance. “When combined with solid-state chemistry, silicon anodes have the potential to change EV battery landscape,”If all goes according to plan, Solid Power will bring its new solid-state batteries to market — and presumeably, to Ford and BMW — in 2026.
