New applications such as hybrid electric vehicles and power backup require rechargeable batteries that combine high energy density with high charge and discharge rate capability.
Recently, we have developed two types of improved lithium batteries. One is the high energy density and medium rate battery for light vehicle application, and the other is the high power density cell for the HEV application.
Therefore, battery system safety can be enhanced through the following approaches: (1) preventing or alleviating heat and gas generation and (2) managing heat and gas generation. Safer battery cells can be fabricated by modifying the materials, inner structures, or safety devices.

Zinc-bromine flow batteries (ZBFBs) offer great potential for large-scale energy storage owing to the inherent high energy density and low cost. However, practical applications of this technology are hindered by low power density and short cycle life, mainly due to large polarization and non-uniform zinc deposition.
The results indicated that a low ethylene carbonate content helped achieve a high discharge rate owing to its low viscosity and high ionic conductivity. Rui et al. 94 proved that an Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C (LVP/C)-based battery material provided a …
