Webinar: Solid-State Batteries: Decoding the Next Leap in Performance, Value, and Market Readiness
Presenter: Dr Xiaoxi He, Research Analyst, IDTechEx
Date: Tuesday 2nd December 2025
Solid-state batteries are widely regarded as the hope for the next generation of electric vehicles (EV), enabling higher energy density, faster charging, and safer operation. Yet, the road from laboratory innovation to large-scale commercialization remains complex and rapidly evolving.
This IDTechEx webinar will guide participants through the foundational principles of solid-state batteries, explore the trade-offs among leading electrolyte technologies, and provide an evidence-based view of market timelines, value propositions, and performance metrics driving this transition.
Attendees will gain an integrated understanding of where the sector stands in late 2025 and how priorities are shifting toward manufacturability, scalability, and sustainability.
