As the electric-vehicle (EV) industry races toward higher efficiency and greater range, solid-state batteries (SSBs) have emerged as one of the most promising technologies on the horizon. These advanced batteries are being hailed for their potential to deliver significantly higher energy density, faster charging times, improved safety, and a longer operational lifespan compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries.

Yet, despite their advantages, solid-state batteries remain largely in the research and pilot stage, with several technical and economic barriers preventing widespread commercialization. Still, it’s important for EV designers to grasp the potential and, more importantly, be prepared with designs that can be adapted to solid-state batteries when/if they become commercially viable.
