Unlike lithium-ion batteries, these cells can be stacked on top of one another without encasings to separate them.<\/div><div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New Developments<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Battery performance is a key aspect in the development of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/specials\/X57\/\" rel=\"noopener\">more sustainable electric aircraft<\/a>. These batteries must effectively store the huge amount of energy required to power an aircraft all while remaining lightweight \u2013 a key requirement in aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the amount of energy a battery can store is only one side of the equation. A battery must also discharge this energy at a rate sufficient to power large electronics, such as an electric aircraft or unmanned aerial vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put another way: a battery could be described like a bucket. A battery\u2019s energy (or capacity) is how much the bucket can hold, while its power is how fast the bucket can be emptied. To power an electric aircraft, the battery must discharge its energy, or empty its bucket, at an extraordinarily fast rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To that end, SABERS has experimented with innovative new materials yet to be used in batteries, which have produced significant progress in power discharge. During the past year, the team successfully increased their battery\u2019s discharge rate by a factor of 10 \u2013 and then by another factor of 5 \u2013 inching researchers closer to their goal of powering a large vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These new materials enable additional design changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SABERS team realized solid-state architecture allowed them to change the construction and packaging of their battery to save weight and increase the energy it can store \u2013 the size of the battery\u2019s bucket from the earlier analogy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of housing each individual battery cell inside its own steel casing, as liquid batteries do, all the cells in SABERS\u2019s battery can be stacked vertically inside one casing. Thanks in part to this novel design, SABERS has demonstrated solid-state batteries can power objects at the huge capacity of 500 watt-hours per kilogram \u2013 double that of an electric car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNot only does this design eliminate 30 to 40 percent of the battery\u2019s weight, it also allows us to double or even triple the energy it can store, far exceeding the capabilities of lithium-ion batteries that are considered to be the state of the art,\u201d Viggiano said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safety is another key requirement for the use of batteries in electric aircraft. Unlike liquid batteries, solid-state batteries do not catch fire when they malfunction and can still operate when damaged, making them attractive for use in aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SABERS researchers have tested their battery under different pressures and temperatures, and have found it can operate in temperatures nearly twice as hot as lithium-ion batteries, without as much cooling technology. The team is continuing to test it under even hotter conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Partnerships and Future<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, the main objective for SABERS was to show the battery\u2019s properties meet its energy and safety targets while also demonstrating it can safely operate under realistic conditions and at maximum power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SABERS has collaborated with several partners, including Georgia Tech, Argonne National Laboratory, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, to further this leading-edge research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the collaboration with Georgia Tech allowed researchers to utilize some different methodologies in their work and discover how they can improve their battery for practical use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGeorgia Tech has a big focus on micromechanics of how the cell changes during operation. That helped us look at the pressures inside the battery, which then helped us improve the battery even more,\u201d said Viggiano. \u201cIt also led us to understand from a practical standpoint how to manufacture a cell like this, and it led us to some other improved design configurations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SABERS also has engaged the expertise of multiple NASA centers and projects to achieve its objectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had a lot of productive discussions on how others at NASA could leverage our work and potentially use our battery,\u201d said Viggiano. \u201cIt\u2019s been extremely rewarding to think about what could possibly come from it. We\u2019ve seen SABERS grow from an idea we had at lunch one day to, potentially, an energy solution for aeronautics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SABERS is part of the <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/aeroresearch\/programs\/tacp\/cas\">Convergent Aeronautics Solutions<\/a> project, which is designed to give <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/aeroresearch\">NASA researchers<\/a> the resources they need to determine whether their ideas to solve some of aviation\u2019s biggest technical challenges are feasible, and perhaps worthy of additional pursuit within NASA or by industry.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-about-the-author nasa-gb-align-full width-full maxw-full padding-x-3 padding-y-6 hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-about-the-author\"><div class=\"grid-row grid-container maxw-widescreen padding-x-0 border-top-1px border-color-carbon-black padding-top-3\"><div class=\"margin-bottom-4\"><h3 class=\"heading-14\">About the Author<\/h3><\/div><\/div><div class=\"grid-row grid-container padding-x-0 maxw-widescreen\"><div class=\"grid-col-12 desktop:grid-col-6 desktop:padding-right-9\"><div class=\"grid-row\"><div class=\"hds-author-thumbnail mobile:circle-6 mobile:maxw-6 circle-card maxw-card thumbnail margin-right-2 desktop:margin-right-5\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"10rem\" height=\"10rem\" loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"low\" class=\"avatar avatar-300 photo medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/cropped-john-gould-sept-2023-2-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"John Gould\"><\/div><div class=\"grid-col\"><div class=\"margin-bottom-2\"><h2 class=\"heading-29 line-height-sm\">John Gould<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"heading-12 p-md\">Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate<\/div><div class=\"padding-y-2\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"desktop:grid-col-6 desktop:padding-right-9\"><p class=\"margin-top-0\">John Gould is a member of NASA Aeronautics' Strategic Communications team at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC.
