Germanium can take on more lithium during the reaction than other materials-making it a promising component for delivering higher battery capacity and superior discharge speeds,

Germanium is less abundant and more costly than other materials, such as silicon or carbon, but high battery performance resulting from its favorable uptake of lithium may be a factor in making lithium-germanide batteries attractive in the marketplace.

When the companion element-in this case germanium-takes up lithium, the volume of the electrode expands dramatically.
