The Future of Energy Storage - Professor Yet-Ming Chiang, MIT

Ғылым және технология

What have been the key battery technology breakthroughs to get us to where we are now? What are some new opportunities for large-scale energy storage & what's MIT doing? What are some key lessons for startups to be successful in the battery industry?
Energy storage will play an increasingly important role in a decarbonized world. From electric vehicles to grid resiliency, batteries will impact the ultimate success of numerous industries that are critical to a low carbon society. Professor Yet-Ming Chiang, one of the world’s most prominent researchers in energy storage, will give a personal perspective on some of the challenges and opportunities for better and cheaper energy storage.
From a historical perspective, battery performance has improved steadily, but now the divergent needs for batteries in high energy density applications such as EVs (and, coming soon, electric aviation), and those for grid storage, which emphasizes ultra-low cost and earth-abundant materials, are becoming clear. He will give examples of emerging innovations that may address these different needs, including solid-state and other batteries that use alkali metal electrodes, and approaches that make use of the most widely available electroactive elements. The expectation is that the audience will come away with a realistic but exciting roadmap of possible areas of innovation for energy storage.
Finally, he will conclude with his personal experiences in building battery enterprises. Battery technologies are notoriously difficult to scale given high technology risk and high development costs. Yet-Ming will share some of the unique lessons learned at startups he has co-founded, including A123, 24M, and most recently Form Energy.
Prof. Chiang's research focuses on the design, synthesis, and characterization of advanced inorganic materials and related devices. Current topics include new cathode and anode materials for lithium ion batteries, phase transformations in electroactive materials, electrochemical device design, electrochemical-to-mechanical energy conversion, self-assembling colloids, and the stability and defect chemical properties of interfaces in inorganic materials.

    We shud pump lithium and sulpher through a pipeline and charge it as it goes along. As far as pushing lithium into a ceramic, just ad the lithium while the ceramic is being formed. It would probably be simpler to shrink everything by 15% so we don't need so much energy. That would reduce the grocery bill and the energy use. Just a little more levity.

    Sorry to disappoint, but the SAFIRE project is pseudoscience. The only person that knew any plasma physics on the program left, and published a paper on it. If you're excited about real fusion, I'd look at Dennis Whyte, and tokamak energy. They have a real path to fusion power production. Or, look at NASA's lattice confinement fusion.

    The speaker explains that a goal is to reduce the carbon dioxide. What isn't said is the price your competing with does not include the real cost of carbon dioxide's impact on climate change . The truth is we cannot afford the fossil fuels at any price. As this becomes more apparrent people who own or control the fossil fuel reserves will chase the price down so that their asset doesn't become stranded. It is this recognition that is required . It should be a competition between sustainable options. Great lecture by the way.

I think at that time Li-air will be only a gradual improvement, not disruptive. Kind of like OLED: nice, but not that significant. And that's if it happens at all.

They wouldn't have done the experiment had there been a published experiment showing that it doesn't work ( and more importantly, how it didn't work, and with what methods). You people are holding us back with this prestige bargaining. Only the people that get attractive results get paid... That's cherry picking data.

    You're talking about the cold fusion experiment, right? I think your timestamp is off and should be kzread.info/dash/bejne/d2tq049yoZrAdMo.html I think the guy from the audience is talking about the experiments by Fleischmann, it fits the 31 years ago. His research wasn't published, he released it to the public like non-scientific news. This ultimately ended his scientific career. It's so difficult to publish about cold fusion because currently you can't prove it occurs. Good luck publishing a scientific experiment where you test something not predicted by science and fail to demonstrate it - that's like trying to start a combustion engine without fuel and concluding it didn't start. I assume that if Google wanted to commercialize cold fusion they would do so in house and in secret. They would only publish results for PR and/or patent applications. So what's their motivation? > As a favor? Bit far fetched but it wouldn't surprise me they would do a deal with MIT/DOE/whoever to fund this in order to do this research without the reputation risk of doing it yourself. You discover definitive proof cold fusion can't exist. Google says you shouldn't publish your results, the study is ongoing and you should focus on something else. You try to convince them to start the publication and peer review process but they simply say no. Now what? There is no correct answer here: Google acts like a business and pursuit their initial goal, if you try to publish on your own your career is over and if you try to spread the word you can't be credited. There is a valid narrative to do nothing: at this point it's just a theory and the only things to gain is credit and/or save other people some time to spend on other problems, there's no legal way forward and your participation in the project might be beneficial in the end opposed to going rogue. What I try to demonstrate here is the decision to publish or not is not straightforward. I'm not entirely sure what your position is (what do you mean by broken research institutes? What is prestige bargaining? What's wrong with investors targeting successful scientists?) but I feel like you're politically motivated - either because you dislike capitalism or you're a cold fusion believer. What''s your motivation?

    @@nmarbletoe8210 The MIT professor implied it would never get below 100 dollars an hour due to necessary material and manufacturing cost. He was suggesting a different technology would be required to achieve significant cost reductions and was comparing the potential of alternatives. Musk’s cost prediction have been one of his most accurate predictions, and he says they have a roadmap to achieve those cost savings with technology they already possess, only scale and manufacturing efficiency are necessary to produce at that cost.

"Battery electric propulsion can generally be considered the preferred solution for short-distance and light vehicles because of their significantly higher energy efficiency", but "Batteries are not suitable for modes of transport that require high amounts of energy to be stored onboard" as cited from the whitepaper: www.tno.nl/en/about-tno/news/2020/9/e-fuels-crucial-to-sustainable-heavy-transport/

    Imagine how much faster the world could develop solid state batteries if it wasn't for intellectual property rights, patents and limitless capitalist greed in general... Let's put solar panels on every home, business and covered parking rooftop and switch to electric vehicles making nearly everything we do solar powered while completely decentralizing our power supply and empowering everyone as power generation owners. Solar power is CHEAPER and electric vehicles are soon to be CHEAPER to make and already are considerably CHEAPER to maintain and operate, especially if charged from your own solar power. A 3-5 year ROI (return on investment) for a solar array that will generate power for decades is a no-brainer and the panels can even be made locally too. #EndFossilFuels #SwitchToSolar #SwitchToElectric #GreenNewDeal

    Ease up on your use of "so" - not every sentence or thought needs to begin with it - gets annoying . With regard to the video's subject, battery efficiencies are critical, but equally important are design efficiencies - specifically motor torque/ chassis weight ratios in the automotive industries. More R&D needs done urgently in these areas - vehicle weights are way too high - SUV's don't need to be 3 tons. Lower weight = better motor/ battery performance - the two are directly linked.
