Research could help extend EV battery life by 30%, slow degradation

Polestar, Volvo, and Lotus in-house developed 800-volt electric architecture and battery packResearchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University claim to have found a method to "revitalize" lithium-ion batteries, potentially extending their useful lifespan by nearly 30%. The research points to a novel way to slow battery degradation. As lithium-ion batteries rack up charge/discharge...
