A new type of solid-state battery, which was developed by LG Energy, has a promising outcome for electric vehicles in the future. 

This battery cell uses pure silicon anode that could provide cheaper, but more effective energy for EVs.

Through the collaboration with UC San Diego researchers, scientists have created a game-changing battery that would better impact the automotive industry.

Solid-state batteries that use pure silicon anodes could be the next big thing for EVs. Here's why they are unique compared to lithium-ion batteries.

According to a report by SlashGear, a recent finding suggests that the new-gen solid-state battery will provide a high-density and long-lasting energy to automobiles. It is also safe to use for EVs.

For instance, graphite anodes have less energy density compared to silicon.

However, there is a downside that we should know about the latter.
