Tesla Motors Canada ULC published a patent, confirmed by Tesla CEO Elon Musk on the adaption of anode free lithium metal batteries. The license intended to bring forth energy sustainable and low-cost expense of battery cells for Tesla’s self-driving cars.
Jeff Dahn, who had been a leading researcher in lithium battery worldwide, came into agreement with Musk to work for the Silicon Valley Company. The motive was to build a lithium-ion pouched cell that could outperform the traditional technology battery.
These anode-free batteries are not merely rechargeable but have a remarkable energy consumption capacity and come at a lower cost compared to the existing Li-ion batteries. The absence of the anode also makes it convenient in the assemblage.
