Low-cost, Earth-abundant raw materials power a new grid energy storage solution
Researchers at Tohoku University have unearthed a means to stabilize lithium or sodium depositions in rechargeable batteries, helping keep their metallic structure intact. The discovery prevents potential battery degradation and short circuiting, and paves the way for higher energy-density metal-anode batteries. Courtesy of Tohoku University Scientists are ever-seeking to develop … [continued]
Scientists astounded by performance of sustainable batteries with far-reaching implications for electric vehicles and devices. Researchers at Bristol have developed high-performance sodium and potassium ion batteries using sustainably sourced cellulose. Scientists at the Bristol Composites Institute have developed a novel controllable unidirectional ice-templating strategy which can tailor the electrochemical performances of next-generation … [continued]
Lithium-air batteries have the potential to achieve extremely high energy densities that would render the range issue of electric vehicles completely unimportant. However, they still need work, and it’s not a foregone conclusion which battery technology will lead the market in a decade or so. Some researchers have decided to pursue … [continued]
