Oxford Cracks £3M Battery Code That Could Kill Cobalt Dependency Forever - Karmactive

Multiple cylindrical batteries arranged in rows with one battery standing upright in focus, representing current battery technology that Oxford researchers aim to improve with cobalt-free alternatives — Current lithium-ion batteries rely heavily on expensive metals like cobalt and nickel, but Oxford's £3 million 3D-CAT project aims to develop cathode materials that could eliminate this dependency while improving performance and reducing costs for electric vehicles.
