Efficient Battery
Power companies are using solid-state technology to improve efficiency
Trend - Architectural and automotive brands are leveraging solid-state battery technology for its improved capacities, reduced weights, and improved safety rates over traditional liquid electrolyte batteries. This technology improves convenience for consumers while reducing climate impacts.

Insight - One of the largest barriers to consumers venturing into electric transportation stems from safety and capacity concerns. Regular batteries are heavy and often have lower range than gas-powered vehicles, leading to the desire for more efficient, lighter-weight batteries that charge more quickly. On the architectural side, customers desire safe, reliable electric power supplies that deliver energy without the potential to explode or preemptively run out of fuel.
Workshop Question - How could solid-state batteries be leveraged to reduce energy costs in your industry?
