description Li<sub>6-x</sub>Zr<sub>2-x</sub>AxO<sub>7</sub> (A = Nb; Ta) system with 0 < x < 0.30 is synthesized by glycine-nitrate method. Boundaries of solid solutions based on monoclinic Li<sub>6</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> are determined; temperature (200–600 °C) and concentration dependences of conductivity are investigated. It is shown that monoclinic Li<sub>6</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> exhibits better transport properties compared to its triclinic modification. Li<sub>5.8</sub>Zr<sub>1.8</sub>Nb(Ta)<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> solid solutions have a higher lithium-cation conductivity at 300 °C compared to solid electrolytes based on other lithium zirconates due the “open” structure of monoclinic Li<sub>6</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> and a high solubility of the doping cations.
