APPLE AIMS TO REINVENT THE BATTERY WITH HIGH-PERFORMANCE CATHODE TECHNOLOGY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Apple is designing a battery with a new composition of raw materials. It aims to dramatically increase the silicon content to increase capacity and shorten charging times. One of the main issues with using silicon for batteries is that silicon expands during charging and powering. Apple is also researching the use of carbon nanotubes as a conductive material to improve battery performance. The new battery may be launched as soon as 2025.
