Electric vehicles could soon be cheaper to run and faster to charge thanks to research into the next generation of battery tech. Six British universities have won a £55m grant from the Faraday Institution to research how to make it more efficient to power eco-friendly cars in a bid to make them more compelling and affordable. The money will go towards the development of the next generation of lithium-ion batteries, with powerful new electrodes designed to unlock their full potential.
Researchers say using different materials could be used to make so-called "smart electrodes", which will be arranged with greater precision and provide greater performance benefits. Advancements in this field have been described as a vital part of the electric car industry in the UK, with the government has pledged to cut greenhouse gas emissions to close to zero by 2050.
The research funding has been welcomed by the government, with business minister Nadhim Zahawi saying it would help deliver a "brighter, cleaner future on our roads". He said the government remained committed to all cars and vans being effectively zero-emission by 2040.
