Solid-state batteries have the potential to revolutionize the electric vehicle market and beyond, from cars to electrified aircraft. With longer ranges, faster charging times, and enhanced safety, they offer significant advantages. Most importantly, they present an opportunity for automakers to reduce reliance on Asian cell producers. Tech start-ups from Europe and the U.S., some backed by major automotive OEMs, and established Asian cell producers are racing to bring solid-state batteries to vehicles. However, significant technical and economic challenges must be addressed before industrial production becomes a reality.
In our online expert keynote, Porsche Consulting battery experts Dr. Steffen Wirth, Associate Partner, and Dr. Xiaohan Wu, Lead Expert, tackle the critical questions:
- What is the true potential of solid-state battery technology?
- What are the biggest challenges to industrialization?
- Which application segments are best suited for solid-state batteries?
