Toshiba has successfully developed a new generation of SCiB lithium-ion batteries for vehicles - three times that of traditional lithium-ion batteries

September 19, 2022

The long charging time and limited endurance have always been the biggest obstacle to the popularity of electric vehicles. Recently, Toshiba officially announced that it has successfully developed a new generation of SCiB lithium-ion batteries for vehicles, which has the advantages of high energy density and extremely fast charging. According to Toshiba's official measured data (Japan JC08 standard), this new lithium-ion battery can achieve charging performance of 6 minutes, driving 320 kilometers, three times the traditional lithium-ion battery.

Toshiba official website said in the announcement that the company introduced a super-charged ion battery in 2008, using lithium titanate as the negative electrode, which can achieve rapid charge and discharge, with a lifetime of up to 15,000 times, and can be used in an environment of minus 30 °C.

Through technology research and development, Toshiba has also developed a lithium-ion battery using titanium lanthanum oxide as a negative electrode material, and its lithium ion storage capacity is twice that of graphite as a negative electrode material lithium battery. At the same time, Toshiba also showed samples of the new lithium battery, 50Ah, measuring only 111mm x 194mm x 14.5mm. It is reported that it can reach 90% of electricity in 6 minutes of charging, while the lithium battery of traditional electric vehicles can only charge up to 80% in 30 minutes even with fast charging.

According to reports, after charging and discharging 5000 times of a new generation of lithium batteries, it is still able to maintain more than 90% of the battery capacity, and the loss rate is extremely low. In addition, fast charging can be achieved in a low temperature environment of minus 10 °C. Toshiba said that the new titanium tantalum oxide anode material and the new generation SCiB battery are a disruptive advancement that is expected to have a major impact on the battery life and performance. It is reported that the new generation of SCiB batteries is expected to be commercially available in 2019.
