This research reviews 212 experimental battery articles up until 2017 with a focus towards Li-S articles (Figure ). Other types of batteries considered include lithium-air, silicon anode, lithium-ion, and flow batteries. Ones that either include enough information to calculate or directly report cell-level performance are shown in Table . The first set represent articles that cite manufacturing potential, include a complete set of component information to make cell-level calculations, and do not directly report these metrics. The second set consists of those that directly report a metric at the cell-level and do not include a complete set of component level information to calculate cell-level metrics. The third set consists of articles that include a complete set of component level information and report a cell-level metric . There is a trade-off between specific energy and specific power, as well as a lack of representation above 100 W/kg for specific power in the literature. Arrows highlight which batteries are primary batteries (i.e. cycle life of 1). In the case of EV and RE applications, the two batteries highlighted are used in both applications. For the first set, cell-level performance was calculated from component-level information. The component-level information from each paper typically required an individualized approach to calculate cell-level performance due to cell configurations (e.g. coin cell vs. flow cell) and reported information (e.g. areal loading thickness vs. molarities) differing between papers.
