The 2023 ATB represents cost and performance for battery storage across a range of durations (1–8 hours). It represents only lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) - those with nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistries - at this time, with LFP becoming the primary chemistry for stationary storage starting in 2021.
The consumer''s preference is defined by a utility function of vehicle price, fuel cost, maintenance cost, battery replacement cost, driving range and fuel availability. A multinomial logit model is used for projecting the probability that a consumer purchases a specific type of vehicle at any instant of time ( Watabe et al., 2020 ).
Furthermore, a low-cost H 2 /K + hybrid battery using our newly developed NNM-HEA based hydrogen catalytic anode is successfully fabricated, which shows an extended capacity with a retention of 90% after 1200 cycles. This work will pave the way for designing low-cost electrode materials for high-performance, large-scale energy …
