Will our current lithium-ion batteries be able to sustain us?
The Crucial Race to Build a Better Battery with Shirley Meng (Ep. 98)
One scientist’s quest to improve technology as we transition to green energy
Battery scientist Shirley Meng says we need to explore different metals and elements that could last longer and charge faster. Meng is a chief scientist at the Argonne National Laboratory and a professor at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago. For the past two decades, she has been pioneering research on new energy storage materials — ones that are affordable, can be mined ethically, and most importantly, ones that can be recycled efficiently.
