Lithium-ion batteries have been around since the 1980s, with their major technology relatively unchanged. Their use however, has expanded exponentially, particularly in the age of electric vehicles. Tesla, Nissan, GM and others rely heavily on Lithium-ion battery systems for their hybrid and fully EV vehicles. One of the major hurdles cited for EV adoption is the driving range possible between charges.

Solid State Batteries could be a game-changer for EVs and their adoption, because the potential with solid state batteries is fast charge time and long distance range. The most pressing hurdles for drivers considering electric vehicles is the limited range per charge, and the time required for charging.

We're all familiar with both the rise of electric vehicles, and the lingering concerns some have regarding their adoption - namely, driving range, time to recharge, and battery lifetime limits. It's long been assumed that solid state batteries could be the key to solving all of these issues at once, while simultaneously enhancing safety but until recently it looked like it would be quite some time before the technology got to a point where it was scalable and practical. We may have reached that point sooner than expected, however.
