A better battery could have a major impact on many markets. “Innovations that elongate battery life and bring down costs have the potential to transform multiple industries, from automotive to consumer electronics and home security,” says Jennifer Kent, vice president of research at market research firm Parks Associates. “Battery range is a top barrier for EV purchases, for instance, with 39 percent of those not owning or intending to buy an EV saying that EVs need to be charged too frequently or have a limited driving range.” Less expensive batteries could also play an important role in advancing the use of sustainable energy sources, such as wind and solar, by providing a cost-effective way to store excess energy until it is needed.
