Seminar Overview: The Current State of Semi-Solid Batteries

On October 14, 2026, SSK will host an insightful seminar led by Yusuke Hironaka from Fujikei's Mobility Energy Device Division. The topic of discussion will be the advancements in semi-solid batteries amidst the evolving landscape of energy storage solutions.

The Need for Enhanced Battery Technology

In recent years, the market for lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) has expanded significantly. Innovations are required to improve safety, energy density, and the operational temperature range of these batteries. Solid-state batteries are seen as a promising alternative that could potentially reduce the risk of fire hazards associated with traditional LiBs. However, several challenges still hinder their widespread adoption.

In this context, semi-solid batteries are being developed as an interim solution, addressing the challenges faced by both lithium-ion and solid-state technologies. This seminar will delve into the current state of semi-solid batteries, comparing them with liquid LiBs and solid-state batteries in terms of performance and applications.
