A new silicon electrode will make lithium batteries more powerful and sustainable. This is the finding of a study conducted by Queen Mary University of London, with the participation of the University of Pisa, published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.  

According to the authors of the study, which lasted two and a half years, this will increase battery life, resulting in greater autonomy for electric cars.

This will be discussed at E-Tech Europe 2026, the international exhibition and conference dedicated to advanced batteries and innovative technologies for the production and recycling of electric and hybrid vehicles for the automotive, transport, and industrial sectors.

It will take place from October 7 to 9, 2026, at Bologna Exhibition Centre as part of Urban Tech 2026 – The Urban Technology Show, the new event dedicated to e-mobility, traffic, commuting, security, telecommunications & data, and the environment.
