Best from the magazine 2016: Space-saving batteries

California-based BioSolar offers energy-dense industrial- and commercial-vehicle electric storage systems – saving space to create more design freedom.


Automotive manufacturers and designers are always searching for one thing – space. More space for passengers and more space for the latest technology. Engineers at BioSolar have found a way to provide some of this with their compact Super Battery.

Inspired by nature, BioSolar is developing a cathode based on inexpensive conductive polymers and organic materials that can take full advantage of the storage capacity of conventional anodes. By integrating this high-capacity, high-power and low-cost cathode with conventional anodes, battery manufacturers can create a super lithium-ion battery that could double the range of a Tesla electric car.

To explore this cathode technology, Today’s Motor Vehicles sat down with David Lee, president and CEO of BioSolar.
