Solid-state batteries offer significantly faster charging times compared to lithium-ion batteries. While lithium-ion batteries typically require at least 40 minutes to charge at a DC fast-charging station, solid-state batteries can achieve a full charge in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. Some advanced ‘doped’ solid-state batteries can even charge to 80% in just nine minutes. This is due to the enhanced energy density and improved chemical stability of solid-state batteries, which allow for faster charging and potentially longer lifetimes.
| Battery Type | Typical Charging Time (to Full Charge) | Charging Time (to 80%) |
|---|---|---|
| Lithium-Ion | At least 40 minutes (at DC fast-charging station) | Roughly 25 minutes |
| Solid-State | 10 to 15 minutes | Less than 10 minutes (in advanced designs) |
Overall, solid-state batteries promise to significantly reduce charging times, making them more competitive for use in electric vehicles.
