  • On July 30th, 2013, Professor Jeff Dahn of Dalhousie University delivered a lecture entitled "Why do Li-ion batteries die and can they be immortal?".
    Li-ion batteries for tablets and phones last several years. Li-ion batteries for electrified vehicles and grid energy storage need to last decades. I will explain why Li-ion batteries die and, using examples from our recent research, how changes to their chemistry can greatly improve their lifetime. It is my opinion that Li-ion batteries can eventually be made to last for 20, 30 or even 50 years.

    Amazing lecture. I really like the professor. I am not an engineer nor do I have anything to do with batteries except being an EV enthusiast (obsessive? haha) and even I understood all of the lecture. One question though; here he says that silicon is light years away yet we hear Tesla starting to use "a miniscule amount" of silicon in their batteries to get the 90kWh pack. Anyone have anything to say about that?
    Can we also deduce from this lecture that the industry has somewhat covered the part of longevity to make EV batteries that last at least 100,000 miles and now the main issue is energy density + cost?

    • @batterypolice
      @batterypolice 8 лет назад +3

      +Emir Tunçyürek Yup, Tesla's NCA batteries do use Si, and in small amounts the volume expansion effect is not significant, but we can get the high energy density benefits.
      Model 3 has a much higher amount?
      www.technologyreview.com/s/601178/the-tesla-model-3-may-depend-on-this-battery-breakthrough/
      Now the main issue is cost, that's pretty much it, there are materials that can provide us the high energy density, but they are too darn expensive;
      This might be achieved by new chemistries/ configurations as well.

    • @LancePickup
      @LancePickup 8 лет назад +4

      Tesla probably originally went with that format for cost reasons since it was the preferred consumer format (for laptop batteries). An added benefit is that they take advantage of the gaps in between the cells for fire retardant and cooling purposes. Besides, is space an issue, or is the bigger issue weight and cost?

    • @LoanwordEggcorn

      LFP batteries are generally lower energy density, but longer lasting. Since a bus has high weight and drives long distances, LFP is good for that.

      Who else should he have mentioned in a positive way? In 2013 there was basically only Tesla, BMW i3 and Nissan Leaf (both with tiny batteries at the time). And the Volt (which was great), but that is not pure electric. And dumping on the Leaf is VERY much justified. Nissan single handedly tried to ruin the reputation of car batteries with their incredibly bad technological and customer-unfriendly decisions.

    Explanation why temperature is a problem @4:00
    Why fast charging is a good idea @24:30

    • @LancePickup
      @LancePickup 8 лет назад +7

      "Why fast charging is a good idea"
      I don't think that's what he's saying at all (although subsequently it has been shown that fast charging can have a beneficial effect sometimes). I think what he's saying is that the way battery testing is normally done, there is no pause between charge/discharge, so if you test using fast charging you get a lot of cycles in in a short amount of time, which doesn't leave a lot of time for the parasitic reactions that would diminish battery capacity to occur. If you were to pause after the charge/discharge and just wait the equivalent amount of time that you would've while doing a slow charge, the effect on the battery for each of the two charging schemes would be roughly the same (which he also shows the data for). Furthermore, consider that he is showing data for which charging takes place at a carefully controlled (and possibly elevated) temperature. As he says (and you referenced), temperature has a dramatic negative effect on battery life, and for a typical user, fast charging will elevate the temperature of the battery more than slow charging, so the net effect is that fast charging, in actual practice, would be worse for you, unless you took steps to actively cool the battery and also immediately used your battery followed by immediately charging your battery repeatedly.

    • @kikijewell2967
      @kikijewell2967 7 лет назад

      databeestje my own interpretation is that parasitic side reactions take place *during* the charge-discharge cycles themselves - I'm assuming that during the time the li-ion moves through the electrolyte, it is vulnerable to parasitic side reactions because it is more reactive due to missing an electron. So this is not a simple "age of cell" issue - these reactions don't happen so much when the cell is idle. (He does hint that cell *storage* is a topic for another time. No doubt!)
      I'd love feedback on whether this is correct. He doesn't make that clear.
      My own takeaway is that charging while hot is a bad idea. I want to know more about how driving my Leaf and how charging my Leaf affect *internal* battery temps - and thus affect these parasitic side reactions, and my battery life.

    • @APsupportsTerrorism
      @APsupportsTerrorism 6 лет назад +1

      Fast charging will also destroy your battery. You took a discussion about controlled tests and twisted it into something completely different.
      Take a Panasonic NCRB (Tesla), spec says 180min not to exceed 0.5c ... if it takes you any less than 3hrs to charge a single cell ... out of 7000+ cells ... you've caused permanent, if incremental, damage.

    • @MikeDeeee
      @MikeDeeee 4 года назад +1

      @@kikijewell2967 Fast charging while hot is actually better than fast charging when cold. You just need to make sure to cool down quickly again after charging. I believe that the parasitic reactions continue at all times, whether a battery is in use or not. But I agree that this was not shown, and they should have done this as a control.
