Kai Wu & team: Li-ion batteries that lower fire and explosion risks
Electric vehicles powered by batteries are safer than combustion engines, but fires can still happen in Li-ion batteries. These fires burn hotter, faster, and require more water to be extinguished. Chinese inventor Kai Wu created a safer lithium-ion battery by developing a top cover that disperses heat, absorbs temperature and pressure, and reduces the risk of fires and explosions in electric vehicles.
