Rapid advancements in battery technology are imperative to develop the next generation of electric vehicles (EVs). Currently, the nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) and lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) variants of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries lead the market for EV battery packs, with LFP batteries witnessing increased penetration over the past few years....

The US battery energy storage sector has emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments of the energy transition, playing an increasingly critical role in supporting grid reliability, renewable energy integration, and electricity market flexibility. As utilities and independent power producers continue to invest in renewable projects, battery energ...

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been an integral part of energy storage systems, but their manufacture depends on rare earth metals, such as cobalt and nickel, sourced from countries that are subject to humanitarian crises and illegal mining practices. There is also a concentration of resources in selected locations, such as China, for LIBs. The ...

Quasi-solid-state batteries (QSSBs) are emerging as a promising next-generation lithium battery technology that bridges the gap between conventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). By integrating a confined liquid electrolyte within a polymer, inorganic, or hybrid solid framework, QSSBs combine the high ionic con...

This analysis examines the growing promise of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) as a revolutionary solution to the changing electric vehicle (EV) environment. As lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) struggle with issues like raw material limitations, price volatility, environmental concerns, and safety constraints, SIBs present an attractive alternative. Using w...

The global paints and coatings industry is being redefined by sustainability imperatives, with particular emphasis on paint recycling as an emerging focus area. However, the transition toward circular practices remains uneven, as diverse structural, technical, and system-level challenges persist across markets. This report examines the evolving lan...
