What is Li–O2 and Li–S batteries with high energy storage about?

E nergy storage will be more important in the future than at any time in the past. Among the myriad energy-storage technologies, lithium batteries will play an increasingly important role because of their high specific energy (energy per unit weight) and energy density (energy per unit volume). Since their introduction in 1991, Li-ion batteries (Fig. ) have transformed portable electronic devices . New generations of such batteries will electrify transport and find use in stationary electricity storage. However, even when fully developed, the highest energy storage that Li-ion batteries can deliver is too low to meet the demands of key markets, such as transport, in the long term. Reaching beyond the horizon of Li-ion batteries is a formidable challenge; it requires the exploration of new chemistry, especially electrochemistry, and new materials 2,5,6 . There are few options. Two, based on lithium, are receiving intense interest at the present time and will be discussed in this Review: rechargeable Li-air (hereafter referred to as Li-O 2 as O 2 is the fuel) and Li-S batteries 7 . Other options, especially Zn-air, have been reviewed in detail recently elsewhere . Although Li-O 2 and
