– Complex protective measures: To minimize the risk, heavy protective housings are required, which add weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Solid-state batteries dispense with liquid components and do not require a separate separator, as the solid electrolytes prevent direct contact between the electrodes.\u00a0 This makes the batteries more compact, lighter and less sensitive to high temperatures.<\/p>\n

Advantages for electric motorcycles<\/h3>\n
Keiji Otsu, President and Managing Director of Honda R&D, explains: \u201cCompared to liquid electrolytes, the solid electrolyte is chemically more stable.\u00a0 This enables the use of high-capacity materials such as lithium metal, which could not be used in liquid lithium-ion batteries.\u201d\u00a0 He also emphasizes that solid-state batteries remain stable at high temperatures – up to 80\u00b0C – and have a significantly lower fire risk.<\/p>\n
E-motorcycles could benefit even more from this technology than electric cars.\u00a0 As the battery weight of motorcycles is higher in relation to the total mass of the vehicle, the weight savings could have a significant impact on handling and range.\u00a0 As production costs fall, Honda could significantly change the market and put electric motorcycles in a new position compared to conventional combustion engine models.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/h3>\n
Honda’s pilot project for solid-state batteries could accelerate the development of e-mobility.\u00a0 There are promising prospects for electric motorcycles in particular, as both the weight and the cost of the batteries could fall significantly.\u00a0 If the technology is ready for the market by the end of the decade as planned, e-bikes could take a big step towards being suitable for everyday use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
