Sam please fix your units. It's kilowatt hours per kilo and again you have to distinguish between pack and cell level. No way that somebody is getting 500 watt hours per kilogram at the full pack level. That's probably a cell level figure, so you have to observe these two distinctions. Watts is power rate kilowatt hours is energy level and the distinction again between Pack level and cell level energy density. Last but not least in terms of misleading claims if you put a hundred kilowatt hour battery into a Tesla Model 3 it would get 20% more range than the current vehicle if the battery weight was exactly the same. If it weighs significantly less, you might get 30 to 35% more range, but even that may be optimistic. That does not remotely translate into a thousand miles of range. Not even close. Please reIn in these wild speculative statements - they are actually hurting your Channel

@dianapennepacker6854 20 дней назад

It is 500 Wh/kg. Not kilowatts. Not sure why you're saying he is wrong with that. I have no idea cell or pack level. It is whatever most manufacturers compare it to when talking about these things. Amprius also has new batteries that reach that level. 504 wh/kg of gravemetric energy density or 1,300 watts per liiter of volume. The claims he is making is straight out of the manufactuers mouths I think by the way as I have heard them before in other videos. GT p Except that range thing he said. If a Model 3 was getting 100 miles for 100wh/kg. Then you put a 500 wh/kg battery with all other metrics being the same into it. You would get a car that does 500 miles in a perfect world. As the Tesla 3 in the example was getting one mile per watt hour. Anyway Sam was right as far as wh/kg which is why these batteries are a big deal. I THINK they are mainly going to be squeezing the aircraft industry for the moment though. I thought there was a 720wh/kg already in China? That is my only question on this video. Does that not hold the record or is it since it was just a lab battery?

@Alarix246 11 дней назад

CATL wrote 205Wh/kg. Sam says that Elon said what needs to be achieved is 500W/kg. Do notice the missing "h" in the latter statement. Watthour isn't the samee as Watt.

@ericschmidt6440 27 дней назад

Dear Electric Viking, The unit for energy density is "watt-hours-per-kilogram". Don't forget the "hours" when talking about it in your videos. You seem to forget the hours while speaking. The energy density of this CATL battery is really incredible - but that will most likely be connected to a cost. We need to hear about the price, too.

@junkerzn7312 29 дней назад

The condensed matter battery does have very high energy density, but it is also about 10x the cost of their regular lithium batteries (such as the Shenxing 2 LFP battery). That is why it is focused on aviation. If they are putting it in trucks then I'm guessing they are just demonstrators, not an actual commercially-deployed product for trucks. 4C charging means 1/4 of an hour from empty to full. 1C = 1 hour from empty to full. The C-rate only relates to "range" when you also take into account the size of the battery pack installed in the vehicle. No matter the size of the pack, 4C means the entire pack can be charged from empty to full in 1/4th of an hour (15 minutes), for a range of XYZ (size of pack x 3 to 4 -ish). In terms of cell life. LFP cells basically don't die, they just lose capacity slowly over time. Current LFP cells are generally rated around 3000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge per cycle to 80% of original capacity (after the 3000th cycle the battery has 80% of its original capacity). In an EV LFP technologies today can hit 6000. So 18000 is not actually that much of a stretch. However, even though the cells might not die, the power electronics connected to those cells certainly will. This is the true limiting factor for a LFP battery pack... the BMS and power electronics inside the sealed battery and not so much the cells themselves.

@GON-lu4me 29 дней назад

@themogget8808 29 дней назад

We are talking about different batteries here, developed for different applications. Instead of putting the same lithium batteries in everything, there is a special cheap battery (sodium) for budget EVs and bulk/grid storage. There is a special automotive battery (LFP) that is more expensive, but is very durable, higher energy density, and very fast charging. There is a special aviation battery (condensed state), which is extremely high density, but will be so expensive it will only be used in airplanes and the highest performance luxury cars. Maybe in the long run, the aircraft batteries come down in price enough to be used for other applications, but even if they were free to make the supply/demand laws will have them bid up price by demanding application by aircraft due to constrained supply. The good news is that these specialized batteries are bringing clean power to more and more applications, accelerating the energy transition.

@@erktrek The way he said it didn't confirm the 18k cycles was for the 500Wh/kg battery, so I assume that's actually another battery cell altogether. That CATL doesn't state any other performance characteristics than energy density and charging speed could be interpreted as those aspects might be less than impressive. Like, manufacturability/price, cycle count, shelf life, low temp performance and so on. We'll have to wait and see I guess. A 500Wh/kg cell battery pack that's no more expensive per Wh than current cells (ideally no more expensive PER CELL), can be manufactured at scale and has at least comparable cycle/shelf life, charging speed and low temp performance as currently available cells would kill combustion cars pretty much dead as it is. And much more so if any other factors are superior to current cells as well. I'd suggest caution rather than exuberance here though. Chinese companies aren't always the most trustworthy, unfortunately.

Amprius announced a 500kWh/kg battery last year having solved the 100% silicon anode problem. If CATL have found another way to achieve 500kWh that does not involve a silicon anode, then unless that technology precludes the use of silicon, then there is probably no reason the two innovations can't be combined. The same goes for solid state electrolytes. I raise this because the headline to the video announcing that this "ends solid state" is silly unless it does something that makes it incompatible with solid state batteries. The other thing to keep in mind is that there are so many announcements of "game changing" improvements in the technology that if all came to fruition, we'd be driving 2,000km on a pair of $5 AA cells by now. Those who are dubious about getting overly excited based on press releases are well justified.

The catl semi solid state pack of 150kwh in the nio et7 by welion weighs just 44# more overall than the same size pack by catl using nmc cells of just 100kwh capacity. So a tesla model s could use this for 40%+ more range at no weight penalty or cut 350-450# out and keep around 100kwhs and 400+miles. Bringing a model S lr down to around 4,000-4,200# from 4,400# now. It will be interesting imo to see what ev oems do once this tech is avaipable widely spread cheaply in a couple year's. I think luxury and suv/truck makers keep massive pack's for big range and to serve towing needs. While mid size segment model's keep similar useable capacity but drop the 200-300# in weight and I bet the low end evs just stick to lfp/lmfp/m3p or sodium cheaper style cells. But improve the charging speeds for better daily useability.

I'm curious how the change in power source will affect aviation landings. As it stands a significant percentage of a long flight take off weight isn't there at landing because the jet fuel has been consumed. this has been enough that when commercial jets experience difficulties during takeoff and ascent, if they need to return to the airport, they have historically dumped fuel. With a battery, the aircraft is not going to have that option, (or if it does, we're talking about dumping a fairly expensive battery, perhaps it will have a glide control feature that allows it to glide to designated safe drop sites?) How much training will commercial pilots moving to these systems have to go through to become familiar with the new handling characteristics of the aircraft, both at takeoff, where it's likely to be somewhat lighter, and landing, where it will be significantly heavier?

Not 500 WHr/kg for CAR batteries. 205 is about 80% less than NMC batteries in Teslas, although at a lower cost per KWhr, and with faster charging and presumably higher fire safety and cycle life; maybe also the ability to charge daily to 100% to get all the juice out it per charge.

Tesla is making piles of cash off of every car they sell, because they are continually driving down the cost to manufacture. They don't buy in the bits from everywhere else, all of the 3rd party suppliers lumping on their margins. Where I do agree with you is Ford - they are the best of the rest and doing as much as they can. I have never driven either Ford EV but I am sure they are indeed excellent cars. What everyone needs to worry about, including Tesla by the way, is what Chinese manufacturers are doing in the EV space. The development is relentless and the prices are low, with enormous variety. You can knock Chinese EVs if you like, in the same way Japanese imports were first derided with their chain drive cars. EVs do not need servicing, they do not need filters or brake disks or pads or oil or filters or exhausts or clutches or gearboxes or spark plugs or injectors or anything else that keeps the dealership money extraction machine in fine fettle. I have been fortunate to have many cars, V12 Jags, V6 Jags, Saabs all the way down to a Ford Fiesta and even a couple of Chryslers but there is no putting the genie back in the bottle. The longer the legacy auto industry take to pivot, the worse it will be. It is not a matter of having to continue with ICE - because the Chinese don't care and artificial tariffs, well they work both ways. As battery packs get cheaper and offer longer range and faster charging, the pressure on ICE will get worse, and rapidly. As for bankruptcy, Toyota is in hock with someone else's money to the tune of $280 billion, and servicing that debt just became expensive, no zero percent any more. VW is second and I think Ford is third - they are all trying to spend their way out of this with someone else's money.

Okay I found a chart that looks like it agrees with your number for Li battery. 👍 On that chart, gasoline has about 50Mj/kg… I’m trying to understand the assertion that batteries are more energy dense than gasoline. …Okay the y-axis on that chart is “specific energy” (maybe?) and that looks like about 100x more than Lithium ion batteries… I still don’t think I’m understanding this. One is storage and the other is release rate, right? At least one of these ought to show battery greater than gasoline….? Please explain Sam…? I want to hear that we’ve solved fossil fuels while I wasn’t looking, but I don’t see it yet…?

WOW if this is all true! Game changer for sure! No more range anxiety.

500 watt hour per kg is twice as much as the current 250 watt hour per kg in NMC batteries. So what can you get from that? A current model 3 long range is rated at 350 miles, but only goes 250 miles in real world freeway driving. So 500 miles from a model 3. The F150 lightning is rated for 300 miles of range, but only gets 220 miles of real world freeway driving, or 100 miles when towing at max rated load. So an F150 lightning would get 440 mile freeway range or 200 miles when towing at max rated load. Basically it is approaching what gas powered cars can do. But that is no where near what you need for a battery powered 747 airplane. The fuel load in a 747 is 197,000 kg. That would be like having a 98,500 kwh battery at 500 watt hour per kg. At cruising speed, a 747 uses 65,000 kw, or 87,000 hp. So while cruising, a 747 would use up a 98,500 kwh battery in 1.5 hours. A kerosene powered 747 can cruise for almost 16 hours. So 500 watt hour per kg batteries are still a factor of 10 lower than what you need for jumbo jets.

It might make a twenty first century solar electric air ship viable!🤔

Watt-hour and gas-powered should be hyphenated. Nowhere, not no where. Battery-powered and kerosene-powered should also be hyphenated.
