A Colorado startup working to deliver what’s considered the next evolution in electric vehicles has started production of solid-state battery cells for automakers to test.

Campbell believes Solid Power’s technology, which uses sulfide-based material, can address two of what he calls “the overarching market pain points” for electric vehicles: range and price.

Cooling and additional engineering is employed to try to prevent lithium-ion batteries from overheating. Campbell said skipping those steps likely will cut costs by about 10%. “It’s a problem the field has been working on for a long time. In the last 10 years, we have discovered materials that can actually move ions very quickly and that’s great,” said Matthew McDowell,an associate professor at the George Institute of Technology.

“It was a long process with conventional lithium-ion batteries decades ago,” McDowell said. “They solved a lot of those issues with degradation. That’s what enabled the commercialization of lithium-ion batteries.”
