Why do batteries improve more slowly than other technologies?
Batteries and supercapacitors consist of several components that are manufactured by different organizations.

With increasing energy density, these components exhibit rising interdependencies, which means that only very few material combinations will lead to viable energy storage systems.
An accurate understanding of the global patent literature accelerates R&D and improves the market posititioning for new products.

Innovation reviews & triweekly patent updates
Innovation & patent reviews contain 'patent portfolio readiness level' (PPRL) assessments that allow for predictions of time-to-market for new technologies and identification of key roadblocks.
Triweekly patent updates contain the commercially most relevant new patent families in a certain field, such as lithium-ion battery high energy positive electrodes.
We discuss why specific inventions could allow for breakthroughs in terms of performance or process efficiency.
Check out our triweekly patent updates and our innovation & patent reviews.
