6 FAQs about [Battery Cobalt New Material Project]

Could a new generation of batteries be made from cobalt-free materials?

For decades, scientists have been exploring materials to produce a new generation of long-lasting batteries. The EU-funded CoFBAT project aims to develop novel batteries for energy storage that are cobalt free and in a modular format, rendering it suitable for different wide-ranging applications, be it domestic or industrial.

Could cobalt-free batteries power cars of the future?

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "Cobalt-free batteries could power cars of the future." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 18 January 2024. < / releases / 2024 / 01 / 240118122053.htm>. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. (2024, January 18). Cobalt-free batteries could power cars of the future. ScienceDaily.

Can a new battery conduct electricity faster than a cobalt battery?

In a new study, the researchers showed that this material, which could be produced at much lower cost than cobalt-containing batteries, can conduct electricity at similar rates as cobalt batteries. The new battery also has comparable storage capacity and can be charged up faster than cobalt batteries, the researchers report.

Can cobalt be removed from batteries?

But since cobalt is scarce and prices are notoriously volatile, scientists are searching for ways to remove it from batteries. COBRA was born from a need to create sustainable Co-free materials with improved cathode performance and an advanced battery management system for better battery safety and performance.

Is LFP a good alternative to cobalt & nickel batteries?

Although still practically useful, LFP has only about half the energy density of cobalt and nickel batteries. Another appealing option are organic materials, but so far most of these materials have not been able to match the conductivity, storage capacity, and lifetime of cobalt-containing batteries.

Could a carbon-based cathode replace cobalt?

Now, researchers in ACS Central Science report evaluating an earth-abundant, carbon-based cathode material that could replace cobalt and other scarce and toxic metals without sacrificing lithium-ion battery performance. Today, lithium-ion batteries power everything from cell phones to laptops to electric vehicles.
