Abstract
The rapidly growing demand for electric vehicles and the large body of knowledge generated by the semiconductor industry are driving the rapid advancement of battery technology. By 2030, sales of new automobiles will be virtually entirely made up of electric vehicles (EVs). Next-generation batteries aim to target EV adoption barriers such as cost, carbon footprint, and range per charge. To fulfil sustainability goals, combined with reuse and recycling, enhanced battery lifecycle management and data collection/analysis are necessary. Additionally, firms in the semiconductor ecosystem are well-positioned to contribute to the development of the next generation of batteries because of the strong relationships between semiconductors and automotive batteries. The new battery pack being created by NASA researchers is lighter, safer, and performs better than batteries commonly used in vehicles and large electronics today. After several years of successful work by a NASA activity called the Solid-state Architecture Batteries for Enhanced Rechargeability and Safety, the topic has now piqued the interest of the government, business, and academia (SABERS). Battery performance is critical in the development of more environmentally friendly electric aircraft.
