Guangzhou Automobile Group Co. has announced plans to install self-developed all-solid-state batteries in vehicles by 2026, joining other carmakers in attempting to commercialize a technology that could revolutionize the electric vehicle industry.
Solid-state batteries potentially offer a longer life span, increased range and faster charging times. GAC's version can have an energy density of up to 400 watt-hours per kilogram while meeting safety and reliability requirements under extreme conditions, the state-owned auto giant said in a statement on Friday.
