That happens because small bits of lithium can be cut off from the battery\u2019s electrodes during the charging process. But, a team of DOE and Stanford scientists say they\u2019ve been able to make this \u201cdead\u201d li-ion reconnect, partially reversing the unwanted loss of energy capacity and extending lithium battery life by 30%. <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/01\/05\/doe-stanford-researchers-bring-dead-lithium-batteries-back-to-life\/\" target='bwindow' rel=\"noopener\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; <a class=\"continue-reading-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/doe-stanford-researchers-bring-dead-lithium-batteries-back-to-life\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-152060","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-electrek"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152060","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=152060"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152060\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":253435,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/152060\/revisions\/253435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=152060"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=152060"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=152060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
