Google's Schmidt Flags Promise in New Goodenough Battery



The 94-year-old creator of the lithium-ion battery has invented another breakthrough storage device that’s capturing the attention of industry heavyweights.

“John Goodenough, inventor of the lithium battery, has developed the first all-solid-state battery cells,” said Alphabet Inc.’s Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt via Twitteron Tuesday. Goodenough’s claim that his new battery cells have three times as muchenergy density as today’s lithium-ion batteries is “promising,” according to Google’s former chief executive officer.

The research could result in “a safe, low-cost all-solid-state cell with a huge capacity giving a large energy density and a long cycle life suitable for powering an all-electric road vehicle or for storing electric power from wind or solar energy,” the researchers wrote in the peer-reviewed journal Energy & Environmental Science.
